A collection of the best Alejandro Sabella memes after the Argentina manager almost fell over backwards upon seeing striker Gonzalo Higuaín fail to take a chance and hit the bar against Belgium.
His side eventually made it through the semi-final at Brazil 2014, but the quarter-final was not without its nervous moments for the Argentine coaching team.
Sabella watched in astonishment as the ball struck the crossbar and then appeared to close his eyes before drifting backwards as if falling asleep.
Stumbling, the 59-year-old finally caught ahold of his senses and stopped himself from crashing to the floor.
The internet was pleased with this amusing World Cup interlude, check out the best Argentina manager Alejandro Sabella memes after his fall against Belgium.
