There have been so many incredible moments at this World Cup it can be hard to pick a favourite.
Great goals, amazing celebrations and stand-out performances have littered the tournament in Brazil.
However, one man is slowly rising to the top of our list and it may not be someone you’re familiar with, so in case you’ve somehow missed his sheer awesomeness, here’s a recap of why Mexico boss Miguel Herrera is the greatest guy at this World Cup. He starts off quietly methodical…
However, a quick robot gets him in the zone.
He encourages the use of unorthodox tactics…
And he sees everything.
But when Mexico score…
…Herrera goes…
…absolutely…
…BANANAS!
Proper bananas!
He sometimes manages to contain himself for a more gracious fist-pump…
But still can’t help having one last bananas.
You can see why they love him.
And so do we. Plus he used to have this awesome mullet!
Mexico beat Croatia 3–1 today to advance to the knockout round of the World Cup. Miguel Herrera, El Tri’s manager, was happy about this result. Very, very happy.
Sorry, we’re getting ahead of ourselves. First, Herrera was mad—very mad—because the referees failed to call a handball on Croatia. Here’s the GIF, via BuzzFeed:
But then Mexico scored! Here’s Herrera’s reaction, via Twitter user @myregularface:
Miguel Herrera and Mexico will face the Netherlands on Sunday. It should be a great game. But there’s no chance that what happens on the field will be more entertaining than the man on the Mexican sideline.
