Roberto Firmino, the former Liverpool star, was denied the chance to captain his team Al-Ahli to its second league victory of the season on Friday \u2013 thanks to a last-minute equaliser from Sadio Mane\u2019s teammate.<\/p>\n

Firmino, now in his second season with the Saudi Pro League\u2019s Al-Ahli, seemed set to secure an away win against Al-Nassr, but a last-minute own goal resulted in a draw for Mane\u2019s side.<\/p>\n

Both Firmino and Mane played the entire match, but neither managed to score during the 1-1 draw. If Al-Ahli had managed to hold on, it would have been a surprising victory against a team expected to challenge Al-Hilal for the Saudi Pro League title once again.<\/p>\n

Despite the disappointment, Firmino is regularly starting and has become a crucial part of his team. This wasn\u2019t the case throughout last season, as he lost his place on the teamsheet for seven consecutive league games between November and December.<\/p>\n

Rumors circulated last year that Steven Gerrard would attempt to reunite Firmino with his former Liverpool teammate Gini Wijnaldum by getting him to sign with Al-Ettifaq, the team he oversees.<\/p>\n

Regarding Firmino\u2019s potential transfer to Aston Villa, Gerrard expressed his admiration by saying: \u201cI obviously know Bobby extremely well, I\u2019ve been a massive fan.\u201d He\u2019s been my follower for years. Since he currently plays for Al-Ahli, I find it extremely difficult to offer commentary on that matter. However, I\u2019ve been a tremendous fan of Bobby Firmino since the day I first saw him.\u201d<\/p>\n

While there were rumors of Mane making a European comeback with a transfer to Besiktas, the move didn\u2019t come to fruition as the Turkish transfer window shut its doors on Friday night.<\/p>\n
