Roberto Firmino's mum breaks down in tears at chant Liverpool fans made up about her son

Roberto Firmino's mum struggled to hold back the tears upon hearing Liverpool's fans' belt out a song dedicated to her son.

The Anfield faithful were often heard proudly chanting 'Si Senor' in full voice whenever Firmino was on the pitch and that was no different for games on the road. It could certainly be heard ahead of Liverpool's UEFA Champions League final triumph over Tottenham back in 2019, which took place at the Wanda Metropolitano in Madrid.

Liverpool FC events group 'Boss Night' tweeted out a clip of the fans chanting in honour of the Brazilian, which was then shown to Firmino's mother Mariana. The tears soon flowed as she was overcome with emotion at the footage from 2019.
