The 2014 Winter Olympics mascot definitely has not enjoyed the past few days in Sochi.

First, the cuddly bear couldn’t fit its head in a car when it tried to ride shotgun. It was relegated to the backseat like a common house pet.

Things only got worse from there when the Russian men’s hockey team lost its quarterfinal game to Tuukka Rask and Team Finland 3-1 on Wednesday. The bear couldn’t withhold its disappointment, which was captured on Twitter for the world to see. Take a look at the crestfallen mascot below.

Not everything has been bad for the Russians in the Olympics, though. Keep your head up, bear — no one likes a depressed mascot.
