# Virals: Michail Antonio celebrates London derby winner on social media

[West Ham](https://readwestham.com/2021/10/24/mark-lawrenson-predicts-london-derby-deadlock-for-west-ham/) striker [Michail Antonio](https://readwestham.com/2021/10/21/pundit-believes-somethings-not-right-with-michail-antonio/) is becoming as synonymous with his celebrations as he is goals.

The 31-year-old talisman [netted the only goal of the game](https://www.whufc.com/news/articles/2021/october/25-october/extended-highlights-west-ham-united-1-0-tottenham-hotspur) at the London Stadium as the Irons overcame Tottenham 1-0.

David Moyes’ side usurped their London rivals to [move into the top four](https://www.premierleague.com/tables) in the Premier League with all three points.

After the match, Antonio was asked to explain the Matrix themed celebration before taking to [Twitter](https://twitter.com/Michailantonio/status/1452290232645296135?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1452290232645296135%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fd-33520975513214415073.ampproject.net%2F2110011758000%2Fframe.html) to revel at the moment.

> Well, last week I put a picture up on Instagram marked ‘AntoNEO’ and it went well to be fair so I thought ‘you know what I’m going to have to do it today!’

> Must be a glitch in the Matrix, I’m getting deja vu! Another big big win!!!!! 🕶💪🏾 [#AntoNeo](https://twitter.com/hashtag/AntoNeo?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) [pic.twitter.com/D64fWGoV4s](https://t.co/D64fWGoV4s)

Antonio provided two key passes, two crosses and one clearance before turning home an Aaron Cresswell delivery for the winner ([Sofascore](https://www.sofascore.com/player/michail-antonio/47772)).

So far this season the ace has [scored seven and assisted four goals](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/michail-antonio/leistungsdaten/spieler/104124) in 10 appearances across all competitions.

### READ WEST HAM VERDICT

Another superb moment in [Antonio’s recent career](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/michail-antonio/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/104124) and for this West Ham side.

Recently [capped by Jamaica](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/michail-antonio/nationalmannschaft/spieler/104124/verein_id/3671), the London-born star is earning recognition for his exploits and the Hammers are reaping the rewards as a consequence.

Attention will now turn to a [Carabao Cup meeting with Manchester City](https://www.whufc.com/fixtures/first-team/fixtures-and-results) before making the trip to Aston Villa next weekend.
