Fernandinho found a theatrical way to fume at a referee who blocked his pass in Brazil.

The midfielder, 38, was aghast when the official lumbered in the way, with his Atletico Paranaense side drawing 0-0 in a state semi-final match.

After the mishap, Fernandinho got in the face of the referee and rigidly waved his arms up and down, gritting his teeth in a dramatic expression.

He proceeded to put his head in his hands and hunch over, considerably vexed at the innocuous error.

His side went on to win the game 1-0 and advance to the final of the Parana state competition.
