Drogba's leg lock has become a meme because internet | SIDELINE

Here's the best part of watching sports with the ol' second screen fired up: You get to revel in the powers of human creativity as soon as a Thing happens.


Sunday night's Audi 2015 MLS Cup Playoffs game between the Montreal Impact and Columbus Crew SC provided plenty of fodder. (Click here to read what the teams' coaches and some players thought of the game's highly debated officiating.) And of course, the second Montreal star Didier Drogba performed whatever exactly this was--we're going with "leg lock"--on Columbus goalie Steve Clark, the internet got to 'shopping.


There's not really one unified hashtag for it, yet--our own Pablo Maurer started with #DrogbaLegLock, but Soccer Morning producer Trevor Hayward has provided some pretty fancy handiwork with the theme of #HangOnDidier.


Enjoy! See? Mondays aren't all bad.
