Pep Guardiola screaming “TWICE!’ to the heavens is soccer’s newest, best meme

Manchester City lost to Liverpool 3-1 on Sunday. It was a statement win from Liverpool, who now sit eight points clear of second place and look to all like they’re actually going to go ahead and win the league this year.

City, on the other hand, are currently in fourth. They have just 17 points off 12 matches played, the fewest points City manager Pep Guardiola has had at this point in a season in his coaching career.

Guardiola isn’t handling this all super well. The loss to Liverpool began as a soccer match for Guardiola, and ended as a one-man Greek tragedy with him roving the sidelines, screaming to the gods to spare him any more indignities.

Actually, he screamed “twice.” The clip came from after what he perceived as a second missed handball call from the officials, so he ran over to the sideline official and screamed “twice!” while holding two fingers up. Then he screamed “twice” again.

Then, to make sure that the gods themselves heard him, he tilted his head to the sky and screamed “twice!” It was haunting. It was beautiful. It led to an outrageous amount of jokes on the internet.

Twice. TWICE. TWIIIIICE!!!!!!
