Move Over Ashley Cole, Wesley Sneijder Is About To Be The New Internet Sensation

Wesley Sneijder's diminutive stature might have allowed him to excel at football, but his 5'7" frame can lead to some embarrassing situations. Such was the case last night during a Euro 2016 qualifier between the Netherlands and the Czech Republic.

You can see from the photo below that pairing the midfielder with a relatively tall mascot was a poor judgment call. Sneijder was forced to stand sheepishly at the side to pose for the team photo as a result. Surely Jasper Cillessen could have traded his mascot with the Galatasaray player to spare his blushes.

It was a bad day all round for poor Sneijder. His side ending up on the receiving end of a shock 2-1 loss to the Czechs.
