Gabigol is the nickname of Gabriel Barbosa, the Brazilian forward who became a Flamengo icon after scoring both goals in the 2019 Copa Libertadores final against River Plate. His name, a mix of Gabriel and gol, the Portuguese word for goal, is chanted by fans and used widely in Brazilian football memes. This specific Portuguese taunt circulates on soundboards and in WhatsApp style shares as a cheeky roast, separate from official commentary. Its popularity comes from the contrast between his serious striker image and the absurd, personal nature of the joke.
