Pittsburgh Native Meghan Klingenberg Celebrates Goal with Terrible Towel

Kyle NewportAug 16, 2015

After scoring a goal in her hometown, Meghan Klingenberg celebrated in true Pittsburgh fashion—by waving a Terrible Towel.

The United States women's national team opened up its 10-game victory tour Sunday afternoon at Heinz Field against Costa Rica. In the 56th minute, Klingenberg gave the United States a 5-0 lead with a goal off a nice cross by Tobin Heath.

To celebrate, Klingenberg ran to her teammates on the sideline, gave them high-fives and then caught a Terrible Towel from coach Jill Ellis.

That celebration, of course, delighted the Pittsburgh crowd. It also caught the Steelers' attention:

The goal came in front of a record crowd, according to reporter Caitlin Murray:

Outside of winning the World Cup, scoring a goal for her country in her hometown has to be one of the highlights of Klingenberg's career.
