Robben consoles son after Holland lose
You might love him or hate him depending on your allegiance, but you can't accuse Arjen Robben of being a bad dad.
Young Luka Robben was in the Arena de Sao Paulo with his mother Bernadien when Holland's World Cup dream ended after losing on penalty kicks to Argentina.
Feeling the defeat like any regular six-year-old, the son of the flying Dutch winger was inconsolable after witnessing his father's defeat.
While some of his teammates collapsed in despair, Robben was caught on camera heading to the stands where his family were seated.
Even though he could not stop his son's tears from flowing or reach out to touch him through the glass barrier, the senior Robben still tried his best to console his young lad before heading off to the dressing room with his teammates.
He might have a reputation for practising the darker arts of football, but Robben definitely scored some brownie points with football fans through one simple gesture.
