doya-gao 

From Japanese doya-gao (ドダ鑔, γ©γ‚„γŒγŠ). A smug face made after a win or something epic (or not). Doya-gao, because of this nature, tend to be irritating.

This word started in Kansai stand-up comedians, and became popular in the M-1 Grand Prix 2006, a manzai tournament. It was adopted quickly on the Internet, to the point where they had a whole TV program named with the word.

The Germans have a distinct word for it. It is "Backpfeifengesicht", which is a compound word that means "a face badly in need of a fist". Or a crowbar.

See also trollface, bitch slap, Umad? and Backpfeifengesicht.
"Yeah, I get it, that parkour was pretty cool. But stop giving me a doya-gao. It's getting on my nerves."

Just like 'ahegao' or 'hengao', it is a common expression among young Japanese people. In Japanese, 'doya' means 'triumphalism', especially in Kansai region and 'gao' indicates 'face'.
'That joke of yours wasn't as funny as you believe it was, so why the doyagao.
