It was Coutinho who sealed the victory for Barcelona against Manchester United on Tuesday. His was the third goal of the match and his celebration pattern was indeed questionable. Some people believe that he celebrated that way in response to the Barcelona fans who are yet to accept him considering how he is yet to adapt to the barcelona play.
The football Legend Rivaldo who once played for Barcelona has criticised Coutinho for his celebration.
Rivaldo told Marca: “It was not a good gesture. He scored a great goal, but it’s never good to do something like that to the fans.
“The supporters criticise him because they know he has to give more.
“I don’t know what happened to him during the week, what he read in the newspapers or saw on television, but you have to keep working, think about the next game and score goals.
“If he scores everything will change and he will be a player for the club.”
