Liverpool fans all over the world were glued to their television to watch their news signing Roberto Firmino in action for Brazil against Paraguay. Liverpool duo Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino started for Brazil. Philippe Coutinho played the entire game, while Firmino was substituted after 69 mins. It was a rather disappointing performance by the new Liverpool man, but plenty blamed Dunga for playing him as a striker.
Brazil lost to Paraguay on penalties, with Coutinho converting his penalty for Brazil. See the best Twitter reaction below :
Firmino plays right up top for Brazil again today – traditional No 9. Just thought Lpool fans would like to know.

I promised to notice Roberto Firmino in this game. Nice stepover for the goal, but other than that only 22 touches.

Lool people calling Firmino a fraud yet judged him by watching compilations?Just because he played bad in 1 game doesn’t mean he’s bad ffs

Firmino actually does something! A neat flick and a nice bit of interplay. He’s *definitely* worth £29mil then #CopaAmerica

Can’t get past the fact that €40M was spent on Firmino yet he goes off for Tardeli. Overpriced?
