Fingers intertwined and intertwined, palm touching face, mouth covered, thumbs pointing upward. A mysterious gesture often repeated in Portuguese stadiums may finally have an explanation.
Dieuqueres, Sporting’s prodigious striker, promised to give reasons for the end-of-season celebrations following the Portuguese Cup final. Now, after the defeat to Porto, the Swede postponed clarification and continued to fuel the rumors.
The truth is that the resemblance of the celebration to the mask worn by Bane (played by Tom Hardy) in the final film of the Dark Knight trilogy has always fueled speculation.
Now, without confirming it, the Lions scorer all but confirmed his inspiration on Monday. In a post made on Instagram, the player left the following phrase in the caption of a video with the best moments of this season: “Nobody cared until I put on a mask.” Very similar to “Nobody cared who I was until I put on a mask.” [Ninguém quis saber quem eu era até que meti a máscara]which Bane said in the film.
