The retro video game was first released in 1996 before Jesus was even born.
But the popular franchise is still releasing versions now, with the game providing the inspiration for Jesus’ latest ink.
And his new tats – inked during the break between seasons – seemed to provide City’s striker with a good luck omen.
He got his name on the scoresheet in the dying seconds of City’s opening game of the 2020-21 Premier League season.
Jesus’ strike in the 95th minute helped seal three points for Pep Guardiola’s side after Kevin De Bruyne and England bad boy Phil Foden also found the net.
Raul Jimenez had pulled it back to 2-1 for Nuno Espirito Santo’s men before Jesus’ decisive finish.

Jesus also had four aces inked onto his wrist in 2017.
And he previously revealed the motivation behind some of his other tattoos and said: “I have four and all of them represent me a little bit.
“One is for faith, the other ones are one of Jardim Peri, where I was born and grew up with the dream of being a football player.
“The other completes the image of the neighbour of my childhood. The last one is the quote of my mom.
“I intend to have more tattoos about my career in the future.”
