Barry draws inspiration from TikTok and Haaland
Thierno Barry of Everton celebrates

It was not just Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall who caught the eye against Coventry, with Thierno Barry scoring twice in the space of five minutes at the start of the second half to help Everton come from behind.

By taking his tally for the season into double figures across all competitions, the 24-year-old - who struggled for both form and confidence after joining the Blues from Spanish side Villarreal last summer - has already surpassed the eight goals he scored last season.

Not only is the French forward lighting up Hill Dickinson Stadium with his goals, he is also setting the place alight with his dance moves.

Barry has made a habit of celebrating every goal with some kind of viral dance move - and that was certainly the case on Friday night.

"I was on TikTok yesterday and I saw an NFL guy do the celebration. I said to Tyrique [George] that if we scored tomorrow, we would do the dance like that, but I think he was shy to do it, so I did the dance alone," Barry told Match of the Day.

The former Basel and Villarreal frontman is also drawing inspiration from Erling Haaland as he looks to maintain his impressive goalscoring form.

The Manchester City forward is the only Premier League player with more goals (14) in all competitions than the 10 Barry has managed this campaign for David Moyes' side.

"I'm very happy because I'm a fan of him," said Barry. "I watch a lot of videos of him and try and do the things he does. If I can play with him until the end to get the Golden Boot, I will try."
