Invented by Ruud van Nistelrooy, legendary scorer for the Netherlands, Manchester United and now assistant on the bench of the Red Devils, this metaphor is very popular in football jargon. Used by Joselu to send his encouragement to Kylian Mbappé, whose debut in La Liga with Real Madrid was sluggish, this theory has also just been taken up by Erik ten Hag. In great difficulty in recent months in the north of England, Marcus Rahsford finally found the back of the net with the Mancunian club against Southampton (3-0), which, according to his coach, could mark the start of a prolific series for the English striker.

One day a striker was talking about a ketchup bottle… Once it goes, it doesn’t stop! It’s very important. Every striker wants to be on the list of goalscorers. Now that he has his first goal, I’m sure there will be more“, warned the Dutch technician to the press.
