A Canadian Premier League player goes viral for promoting his personal business after scoring a goal.
Inter Toronto Striker Tomasz Skublak has stunned football fans with his unusual yet entertainingpost-goal celebration. The forward made headlines with his dominant performance during the club's 4-1 victory over reigning champions Atlético Ottawa at home.
Upon finding the back of the net, the 28-year-old opted for a stunt never before seen in professional football. He did not perform a traditional slide or a corner flag celebration. Instead, he rushed directly towards the nearest broadcast camera.
Skublak leaned down and reached into his sock. He pulled out a small, blue rectangular object that left commentators confused: It was a business card for his own real estate firm.
Holding the card directly to the lens, Skublak looked into the camera with a grin. He then made a clear 'call me' gesture with his other hand.
Despite being elated, Skublak remained focused on the pitch. Later in the contest, he found the net for a second time. The brace capped off a memorable night for the player as well as his burgeoning property business.

The very footage of him holding his business card reached the front page of theReddit /r/soccerwithin hours and has already racked up hundreds of thousands of impressions.
