MADRID -- The Cincinnati Bengals made sure to bring some Spanish flair to Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons.
It was Cincinnati's big trio:Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins who were the headliners on their respective touchdown celebrations. First, Chase and Higgins got things rolling after Chase hauled in a 47-yard touchdown pass from Burrow on Cincinnati's first offensive drive of the game.
Chase played the role of the matador, leaving Higgins to mimic a charging bull in Chase's direction. That drew big cheers from the crowd inside the historic Santiago Bernabeu, the home of Real Madrid.

Then one drive later after a quarterback sneak, it was Burrow's turn to pay homage to the venue. He got up and put his hands to the side of his helmet and wiggled them, a tribute to notable celebration of Brazilian soccer star Neymar Jr., who starred for years with Barcelona.
