A Morocco fan has gone viral on social media after he joined in with the Senegal supporters dancing in the stands of their World Cup match against Ecuador.
Senegal booked their place in the next round of the tournament after beating Ecuador 2-1 at the Khalifa International Stadium on Tuesday.
Watford's Ismaila Sarr opened the scoring from the spot, with Brighton's Moises Caicedo levelling proceedings.
But Senegal regained the lead when Chelsea's Kalidou Koulibaly produced a brilliant side-footed finish in the 70th minute.
However, Koulibaly's strike wasn't the moment of the match as a supporter in the stands attracted plenty of attention on social media.
In the 82nd, the camera panned to the crowd and showed a Morocco fan amongst the Senegal supporters.
