Sergio Aguero was shown a straight red card for his challenge on David Luiz (Getty)

David Luiz’s mum has ripped into Sergio Aguero following the Man City striker’s horror challenge on her son.

Aguero launched himself two-footed into the Brazilian defender during the late stages of Saturday’s entertaining 3-1 win for Chelsea at the Etihad.

The disgraceful challenge led to a straight red card for the Argentina international and he now faces a four match ban. But that’s not all. It also led to being scorned by Luiz’s mother on Instagram.

Regina Célia Marinho has form for getting involved in her son’s battles, memorably defending him after a shocking performance for PSG. On this occasion, she took Aguero to task for his feigned shock at being sent off.




She sarcastically wrote: ‘I don’t understand the scared face when he took the red card! Poor baby didn’t do anything!’

There really is nothing like a mother’s love.
