Gary Lineker has taken to Twitter to react after watching footage of Jack Grealish making a Manchester City fan’s day before the 4-1 win over Fulham.
What’s the story?
Well, as Grealish walked into the Etihad Stadium, his attention was caught by the family of a disabled supporter who adores the £100m man.
After reading what appears to be an ‘I love Grealish’ sign, the England international walks over and reduces the fan to tears by signing her shirt.
Just as it looks like the 26-year-old is about to leave, he walks around to give the supporter a hug in what was a truly heartwarming moment.
Lineker certainly seemed to enjoy it – you can see what the BBC Match of the Day host wrote on Twitter below.
It may only have been a small gesture, but we’re certain that it will stay with the Manchester City fan for the rest of her life.
It’s moments like this that make people call football the beautiful game.
Jack Grealish shone for Manchester City
Grealish’s lovely interaction with the supporter may have boosted him somewhat, as he went on to deliver a phenomenal display against Fulham.
Manchester City’s No.10 won the WhoScored Man of the Match award for his performance, earning an 8.75 rating for his efforts.
Grealish had four shots, and also registered three key passes as he tore the Cottagers apart.
The former Aston Villa man also embarked on five successful dribbles, earning two freekicks for his side.
Defensively, Grealish also put in a shift as he made two tackles and recorded two interceptions.
After a slow start, it looks as if Manchester City’s record signing is starting to settle in under Pep Guardiola.
