Former Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho embarrassingly slipped after presenting a symbolic face-off to a match in Russia's Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) on Monday.
Videos of the 56-year-old manager falling on a red carpet on the ice rink in Balashikha appeared on social media after the accident.
Mourinho was invited by KHL side Avangard Omsk in Siberia to take part in promotional work for the club and signed photographs ahead of the match with SKA Saint Petersburg.
The fall from different angles
The two-time Uefa Champions League winner was helped back to his feet by Avangard's former Detroit Red Wings centreman Pavel Datsyuk after the puck drop.
Avangard play their home games in the city just outside Moscow after their usual arena was found to be unsafe for hosting games.
Mourinho has been out of work since he was dismissed by United in December after two-and-a-half years at the helm.
Norwegian Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has lifted the Old Trafford side to fifth place in the Premier League table and is yet to lose as United manager since taking over from 'The Special One'.

Fast facts on Neil Armstrong’s personal life:
- Armstrong was born on August 5, 1930, in Wapakoneta, Ohio
- He earned his private pilot’s license when he was 16 – he could fly before he could drive
- There was tragedy in his married life: Neil and Janet Armstrong’s daughter Karen died at the age of two in 1962 after suffering a brain tumour. She was the couple’s only daughter. Their two sons, Rick and Mark, consulted on the film
- After Armstrong departed Nasa, he bought a farm in the town of Lebanon, Ohio, in 1971 – its airstrip allowed him to tap back into his love of flying
- In 1994, Janet divorced Neil after 38 years of marriage. Two years earlier, Neil met Carol Knight, who became his second wife in 1994
