Footage of bizarre Joao Cancelo interview after winning goal for Barcelona leaves fans baffled

Joao Cancelo has left fans seriously confused by his post-match interview.

The Manchester City loanee scored the winner for Barcelona, netting Barca's third of the game to add to Robert Lewandowski's double as they completed the 3-2 comeback victory over Celta Vigo.

The full-back finished answering a question posed to him after the game.

But it was his facial expression as he wrapped up his response that has supporters on social media baffled.

As he finished speaking, Cancelo widened his eyes, before leaning his head back.

The Portugal international then licked his bottom lip before dramatically gritting his teeth together, with his eyes still wide open.

His head then returned to a neutral position, with his teeth still gritted but in a more relaxed way than his previous expression.

Cancelo then breathed out and his shoulders lowered as he answered the interviewer's next question and carried on as if nothing happened.

The Barca star had just finished putting in a 90 minute shift with his new club, but fans online couldn't help but react the clip.

"What is Cancelo doing?" one baffled fan asked on X, formally known as Twitter.

A second joked: "Bro was seeing stars."

"Playing in Barcelona makes people go crazy," a third wrote, posting a gif of Lionel Messi doing a forward role on the pitch whilst at the club.

The 29-year-old signed for Barcelona on a season-long loan on September 1, his second loan move this year following his spell with Bayern after falling out of favour at Manchester City.
