Saturday night's friendly between the U.S. and Chile ended up being a predictably disjointed performance from a young U.S. side not used to playing together. But the night was salvaged when Teal Bunbury scored a 74th minute penalty kick that would end the match at 1-1 and produce a meme that will probably follow the 20-year-old throughout his career.
Of course, the final score didn't matter and the match was really all about getting a look at some of the U.S.'s more promising young talents. Telefutura's Spanish-speaking match commentator Pablo Ramirez stole the show, though, with his little celebratory ditty for the Canadian-born Sporting KC striker.
"I like that Boon-boo-ree -- I like that Boon-boo-ree! Teal Boonbooree!" Ramirez sang, sounding just as pleased with himself for coming up with that little tune as he was with the goal itself. Meanwhile, Bunbury and Juan Agudelo, who earned the penalty in the first place, did an out-of-sync rendition of The Dougie to complete the awesomely hilarious scene.
Understandably inspired by this, Jason Davis from Match Fit USA and Sporting KC conspired to produce a remix of Ramirez's call set to the Black Eyed Peas' "Boom Boom Pow." Rock your shoulders to its splendor right this way...
So there you go. Now you have a new ringtone.
