Tennis player imitates Neymar during Wimbledon match

Brazil football star Neymar over reacted to a Miguel Layun tackle on the leg during the Round of 16 clash against Mexico. Brazil went onto win the match 2-0 but the theatrics displayed by the 26 year old reverberated in form of jokes and memes like wild fire across sports fanatics.

Recently, there were a lot of videos and fun inducing elements seen on social media in association with the over reaction of Neymar during their outing against Mexico. Even Wimbledon stars enjoyed a light moment relating to the incident in Russia. This took place during the third-round senior doubles match between Mansour bahrami, Goran Ivanisevic, Jonas Bjorkman and Todd Woodbridge, on Friday.

In the middle of the match, Bjorkman was struck by the ball on his back by his partner. Even though he was not much hurt by the blow, he decided to have some fun at the expense of Neymar. Bjorkman grabbed his stomach and started rolling around the center of the court, to imitate Neymar just as he did at the World Cup. Seeing the funny side of it, Bahrami decided to join the act. He climbed over the net and waved for help. He later proceeded by pretending a mouth to mouth, to the player in order to reinstate the normal human inside him.
