Angry West Ham uses lots of crazy hand gestures to distract Sergio Aguero before spot-kick

Eh, it's only a game.

Football fans are a passionate bunch at the best of times.

And during a game abuse may be hurled at a player that after the 90 minutes, may be regretted by all concerned.

God knows we’ve spoken badly about enough players in our time, but after the game you always tend to feel a bit sheepish, especially having blasted your own brother playing corner back.

We’ve seen great examples of fans behind goals doing their best to try and put players off taking penalty kicks, but we doubt any footballer has ever had to put up with the simply downright crazy behaviour of a West Ham fan during last night 2-2 draw at Upton Park.

The Hammers took a surprise lead inside the first minute, but Sergio Aguero was fouled shortly inside the penalty box afterwards, and dusted himself down to take the spot-kick.

The Argentine slotted the ball past Adrian in the Hammmers goal, but we’re not sure how he did, considering the actions of this fan behind the goal.

Anger management issues we think.

And maybe some others too.
