00:00 Remember the celebration from the always controversial Mario Barotelli? It was at Euro 2012, and
00:10 his image went viral worldwide. Back when Barotelli was destroying defenses and being
00:15 compared to football legends, the Italian player scored an epic race against Germany
00:19 to take his country to the Euro final. But beyond those two amazing goals, Mario Barotelli
00:24 is always remembered for his unique celebration. With a serious face, shirt off, showing his
00:30 power and greatness, he made it clear to Germany and the whole world, "I'm here". What
00:35 many didn't know is that those two goals were dedicated to someone special, his mom,
00:39 who adopted him in 1993 from a Ghanaian family and gave him a home in Italy. Those two goals
00:46 were full of emotion. The celebration sparked all kinds of controversy and opinions, which
00:51 seemed to delight Super Mario since he kept coming up with great celebrations, like the
00:55 selfie he took during a league on-game with Marseille, and perhaps the most iconic one,
01:00 the "Why always me?" moment in the Manchester Day.
