Barcelona’s new favourite son Sergi Roberto shows he is a star on and off the pitch in these photos with his stunning model girlfriend Coral Simanovich.

Substitute Roberto came off the bench to score the decisive last-minute goal to mark the greatest Champions League comeback ever as the Catalans beat PSG 6-1.

And the Spanish defensive midfielder proved to be a hero with the club’s fans, his teammates and his Israeli partner, who described him as “my hero”.

The 25-year-old model and designer is also a social media star with over 200,000 followers.

And she shared pictures of Roberto on and off the pitch with a special message for him: “History… this is my HERO”.

Barca were facing their first Champions League exit before the quarter-final stage for a decade before Roberto scored with virtually the last kick of the match – after PSG had won the first match 4-0, in Paris.

Coral’s image went viral and received more than 22,600 comments in just 12 hours, and almost 500 comments, such as ‘yanivrigler’ who wrote: “this is OUR hero!!”

Netizen ‘coralblum’ added: “What a score!!!! Tell him that all Israel stood on her feet cuz of that score!!! what a player!”

According to local media, the model and the footballer have been together for 3 years since they were introduced by Melissa Jimenez, the partner of former Barcelona player Marc Bartra.

Coral is studying Engineering and Design. She once had a relationship with Dor Refaeli, the brother of global superstar model Bar Refaeli, her fellow Israeli.

Now a well-known model in her own right, her social media account usually features her daily exercise routines and yoga workouts.
