Roberto Firmino had tears flowing down his cheek on more than one occasion as Anfield waved goodbye to one of its finest servant under Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool on Saturday. Firmino has epitomised Klopp’s style of football at Liverpool throughout his time at the club.
He’s won it all with Liverpool ever since joining from Hoffenheim back in 2019, forming one of Europe’s most potent attacking line-ups for several seasons.
And the 31-year-old still had time to create one more special Anfield memory with a late equaliser in Liverpool’s 1-1 draw against Aston Villa on Saturday.
The tears were soon flowing after the final whistle with the Kop signing Firmino’s name on repeat.
The Brazilian was spotted in an emotional embrace with compatriot Alisson Becker as the players began doing their lap of appreciation.
