Watch ex-Man Utd starlet Charlie Savage score free-kick worldie in Carabao Cup.. and Reading fans love his celebration
CHARLIE SAVAGE sealed a worldie with a kiss that wowed Reading fans.
Supporters loved the ex-Manchester United midfielder showing passion dad Robbie would be proud of in a 4-0 Carabao Cup romp at Millwall.
The Wales Under-21 star lit up his second game after switching from Old Trafford to the League One newcomers with a free-kick rocket.
Championship side Millwall even put up a wall of seven men – well, four players together, a small gap, then three more team-mates linking arms.
But Leicester-born Savage, 20, whipped a left-footer over them and into the near top corner, killing off the contest at 3-0.
Away fans rushed down the terraces to celebrate – but if anything they enjoyed what came next more.
Savage raced over to supporters, skidded to the ground with his arms raised wide and kissed the club badge on his shirt.
The former Forest Green Rovers loan star was mobbed by team-mates on the pitch and marvelled at by fans online.
He even joined supporters in tweeting a clip of his goal.
Savage added the words: “First goal for the club (TICK), 4-0 win (TICK). Thanks for the amazing support @ReadingFC fans.

One Royals’ follower responded: “Kissing the badge already @charliesavage84. Legend in the making?”
“What a feeling!” said another, and “Take a bow,” suggested a third.
Other responses included: “Big up Charlie” and “Happy for the lad”.
And there was no way the goal itself would be lost on admiring viewers.
Verdicts full of awe came in, such as: “That’s Savage from Charlie!” and “That cultured left foot”.
And having also shone in an opening-day 1-0 loss to Peterborough, Savage might so far be happy at departing Old Trafford for regular football.
