World Cup 2018: Neymar re-enacts dive in Brazil training as Danilo is stretched by pals in bonkers excercise
Tite's men looking set and ready to face Belgium for a place in the World Cup semi-finals
NEYMAR appeared to re-enact his infamous dive in Brazil training today… as Danilo got stretched to his very limits.
Tite’s men are through to the last eight of the World Cup following a 2-0 win over Mexico, with Belgium now standing between them and a semi-final place.

But the last-16 victory was marred by some atrocious playacting by Neymar, who rolled and wriggled around on the floor after a clash with Miguel Layun.
The PSG ace has since received a lot of criticism, with the dive even parodied in a new KFC advert, but it doesn’t appear to have bothered him in the slightest.
Neymar could be seen laughing and joking in training as he dropped to the ground and grabbed his face.
But he quickly got to his feet with a big smile on his face, showing that he’s not ready to change his ways just yet.

Meanwhile, Man City’s Danilo was treated to a bizarre exercise which saw each of his limbs being pulled by teammates.
The full-back has only just returned from a minor injury but was still subjected to the treatment in training.
Like Neymar, Danilo also appeared to see the funny side of it all and cheered on his pals who were tugged his torso in different directions.
Brazil and Belgium face off on Friday, with a semi-final clash against either France or Uruguay on the horizon.
