Pronounced 'met-hod': a phrase used in celebration of a goal in a footy game in the schoolyard. Named after the Dutch striker from the world cup team from (pos.) the Mexico world cup. An update on this definition has been provided which sheds extra light on this term. Also there is now a separate entry for 'Johnny Metgod': He was a defender, rather than a striker, and although a Dutch international, Holland did not qualify for the 1986 tournament in Mexico, losing a qualification play-off in 1985 with close rivals Belgium (who eventually finsihed fourth, fact fans). Johnny played for a long period during the 1980s for Nottingham Forest, hence shouting 'metgod' is a clearer indication that this saying originating someone in that area. Another possibility is that most kickabouts, featuring commentary by the person on the ball at anyone time, invariably involve a cry when the ball goes in of the name of a player who has either been definitively accepted into the pantheon of greats (Pele, Maradona, Ralph Milne etc) or has recently scored a really good goal that was on Football Focus or the Saint and Greavsie. For example, Marco Van Basten featured a lot after his stunner in the final of the 1988 European Championships. Johnny Metgod had a good line in piledriving shots from about 30 yards, and it became both speciality and something he became known for at the time, so any goal scored from distance would be followed by the scorer saying 'Metgod' in a pre-pubescent Motson-like-high-pitched-excited-voice, thus cracking windows nearby.
