Brazil's Neymar Has Spent 14 Minutes On the Ground in 2018's World Cup

Should we give a Golden Globe to Neymar for his World Cup performances?

Neymar might be one of the sport's best players, but it's another achievement that the world is noticing him by.

Football is known for the dramatic dives falls of its players any time they are challenged for control of the ball, yet even by those standards, Neymar is considered especially extra.

During this year's World Cup, it has been tallied that Neymar has spent a total of 14 minutes on the ground after being allegedly fouled.

The world has definitely noticed.

But his antics extend past the World Cup, too.

And then he gives a penalty for this dive from Neymar 🤣😂 pic.twitter.com/1xehxh9rrI

We'll have to wait and see how many more minutes he adds to his tally in the upcoming match between Belgium and Brazil. You can watch it on SBS tomorrow at 4am AEST.
