Neymar sure has scored in Brazil’s 2-0 win in Round of 16 match against Mexico on Monday. But, his play acting once again has outraged the fans.

 

Just after the play resumed after the half-time break, Neymar netted a goal to take his country 1-0 up in last-16 World Cup match.

Neymar is the perfect example of how a star can turn into a villain in a span of sometime. Just when the fans were praising him for his goal, he turned the same fans against him with his play acting when Mexico’s Miguel Layun tackled him.

 

 

Layun would have hardly stepped on Neymar’s foot but the way the later went flat on the ground and rolled in agony seemed like he was shot in the leg.

Former England international Alan Shearer was left fuming, he said: "FFS Neymar man. STOP IT. We are fed up of it."

 

Meanwhile, 1986 World Cup Golden Boot winner Gary Lineker tweeted: "Neymar has the lowest pain threshold of any player in World Cups since Opta stats began."

Ahead of the match against Brazil, Mexican Captain Andrés Guardado, who was playing his fourth World Cup hjad said,” We all know who Neymar is, but it isn't up to me or my team to judge him, but the referees and FIFA," he said. "Now there's VAR they need to watch his style and know how to manage it.

We know he likes to exaggerate fouls, throw himself on the ground a lot, but that's his style of play and the person who needs to stop that is the referee, not us."
