By Epic Dope Staff | August 20, 2021

Being one of the most popular anime series on the planet, One Piece attracts people from all walks of life.

Major League Soccer player Nicolas Benezet celebrated his first goal for Seattle Sounders by imitating Luffy’s Second Gear pose.

Benezet is a long-time anime and manga fan. He has previously stated that he has a huge manga library with Dragon Ball Z and One Piece being his favorites.

Naturally, fans all around the world are delighted to see the representation at big stages. They were even acknowledged by the staff for the series.

For what it’s worth, each one of us would probably do something similar if we were on those big stages, it’s not like anyone can imitate Third Gear.
