Neymar, the Santos teenage sensation, actually put in a superb performance on Thursday night when he scored one and set up the other as his team beat Avai 2-1 to move into third spot in the Brazilian championship. But while Neymar did most things, thre was one noticeable slip-up which needed to be flagged up.

Attempting a backheel in order to wow the crowd, Neymar managed to get his timing all wrong as he dug his heel into the turf. In turn, rather than showboating, Neymer turned into a show-stopper with a particularly bad FAIL.

Neymar is in fact gaining a taste for falling unceremoniously on the football field as only last week the whizzkid was left with his shorts around his ankles as he again crashed to the floor. (See here.)
