Coach Shows Us Concern

What is great about this picture is if we would only look at it from a technical perspective we'd see many of the same things we would see in fear or anger(tight lips, furrowing brow, stress in the forehead), but here it is very clear it is concern.

I like those easily seen expressions that are close to one of the universal emotions, but are not. These are always great.

The concern is easily seen in the eyes, and the shape of the eyebrow.

If I would see this in real-time, my gaze would remain focused on him. The next facial expression (because concern is a expression that is not held for long) could be anything from fear, anger, joy, etc. and would be very telling.
