“Yes, it was an emotional moment seeing him celebrating in tears after the first goal,” Rolando Zarate said to FirenzeViola.it.

“He has suffered a lot due to his wife’s health problems, it has been really tough for him, but finally I saw him smile again.

“The double in the Europa League will allow Mauro to continue growing, game by game, both mentally and physically.”

Following the first of his two strikes, Zarate removed his Viola jersey to reveal a t-shirt with the message ‘Thank you God, I love you Nat,’ emblazoned on it.
