UP FOR THE CUP

CRISTIANO RONALDO'S 'Siu' celebration is a well known sight to both Premier League and Champions League opposition.

Newcastle themselves have already seen it twice this season after Ronaldo's double on his emotional return to Manchester United, but now Cambridge United have also performed the celebration against the Magpies.

It rubbed salt into the wound for Newcastle, as the richest club in world football were dumped out of the FA Cup by League One Cambridge.

A solitary, scrappy Joe Ironside goal was enough to decide the game, as Kieran Trippier's Newcastle career got off to the worst possible start.

And after the memorable win, Cambridge's heroic squad celebrated in front of their raucous 4,830 strong travelling support.

The celebrations including a rendition of Ronaldo's 'Siu' celebration, much to the delight of the away fans.

And Cambridge's official Twitter account cleverly captioned the video: "Que Siurá, Siurá," in reference to the club targeting a Wembley FA Cup appearance.

And another League One side, just one place above Cambridge in the table, also showed that they have been watching Ronaldo too.

Unfortunately for Udoh the Shrews were eventually outclassed 4-1 by Liverpool, but the 25-year-old striker will always have his moment at Anfield to remember.

Cambridge were rewarded for their memorable win with a home tie against Championship side Luton Town in the FA Cup fourth round draw.

Ronaldo's 'Siu' celebration was born against former Premier League rivals Chelsea.

Speaking to the YouTube channel Soccer.com, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner revealed he whipped out the now-classic move while playing for Real Madrid in a pre-season friendly against Chelsea in 2013.

Ronaldo recalled: "Well, I was in the US and we played against Chelsea and I don't know where it came from. I just scored and I went, 'siu!'

"But it was natural, to be honest.

"After that, I started doing it and I feel like the fans, when they see me they're like 'siu' and I was like, 'wow, people remember Cristiano because of the siu,' so I continued like that."
