Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Just when you think every goal celebration must have been done, along comes another one.

With the new season only just stuttering into gear across Europe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang quickly earns himself a place among our favourite.

After scoring Borussia Dortmund's second goal against Bayern Munich to ensure victory in the German Super Cup, the Gabon international celebrated in a rather 'comic' way.

He pulled out a Spiderman mask in celebration before being immediately replaced – presumably so he could head out and tackle crime on the streets of Germany.

So Aubameyang joins our favourite celebrations, from baby rocking to head butting, check out our collection below...
