In recent times, Maradona has been making quite the odd moves in terms of his managerial career and this has bred a lot of interest and hilarious reactions from his ardent fans.
TUKO.co.ke earlier reported of his step down as manager of Argentine side Gimnasia only for him to revert back to the job days later.
And it was during one of these matches that he once again put up an inadvertent show on the touchline and internet users loved every minute of it.
Gimnasia are currently battling relegation and when a club finds itself in such a situation, everything is at stake.
The pressure seems to have gotten to Maradona who during the game against Cordoba, completely lost the plot.
In a game which his side eventually won 2-1, Maradona did all sorts of antics , including crumbling to the floor when one chance was missed by his team.
At some point, the football maestro was spotted engaging in what looked like an intense prayer session.
In the end, Gimnasia turned the game around to beat Cordoba, but the match had already did a number on the home side manager.
In his post-match interview, Maradona’s emotions got the better of him once again as he broke down to tears while giving his verdict on the game.
The win takes Gimnasia to 21st in the table. Maradona took over in September when the club was rock bottom.
