RETIRED SERGIO Aguero revealed his doctor was checking his heart was OK during Argentina's crazy World Cup quarter-final win over Holland.
The Manchester City and Argentina legend, 34, was forced to retire last year shortly after signing for Barcelona with a heart condition.
Aguero was taken ill during a game for the Spanish giants last October.
The ex-striker was taken to hospital after clutching his chest and complaining of breathing problems and dizziness during a clash with Alaves.
He was ruled out of action for at least three months to undergo a period of observation before being diagnosed with a cardiac arrhythmia.
And the delicate condition had Aguero's doctor checking in on his heart during Argentina's World Cup quarter-final win over Holland.

A boring extra-time flew by before Argentina took the game 4-3 on penalties.
When asked by a fan on how his heart was holding up in the nail-biting affair, Aguero responded: "The doctor wrote to me several times, so imagine."
