Al Hilal’s Neymar has had his fair share of controversies in the past. Neymar has been infamously known for his fake dives and for trying to get the better of the referee with his tantrums. Interestingly, a similar situation unfolded in the NFL match between Las Vegas Raiders and Green Bay Packers. A famous analyst and podcaster shared his wild take as he compares the Green Bay Packers offensive tackle to Neymar for his flop attempt.

Neymar’s diving has been lamented by critics and fans alike. Although the Brazilian international has moved on from his earlier ways, it gets hard to control it every time. Earlier, in a match between Brazil and Peru, a Peruvian critic fumed at Neymar for diving multiple times and causing unnecessary delay.

Green Bay Packers star gets compared to Neymar

In an exhilarating match of game week 5, the Las Vegas Raiders defeated the Green Bay Packers winning the game 17-13. However, the highlight of the match was Packers’ Zach Tom’s attempted dive after Raiders’ no. 98, Maxx Crosby gave him a little nudge. Jose Ramon Llaca took to social media to share his take on the dive by Tom.

Jose Ramon Llaca, a well-known NFL analyst, took to X (formerly known as Twitter) as he wrote about Zach Tom’s flop dive attempt. The podcaster tweeted, “The Packers lineman applied a Neymar… he sucked”. Llaca’s response comes across as an attempt to make the moment more funny.

Llaca’s comparison of Tom’s dive to Ney is spot on, as the Brazilian international is caught in similar moments to win a penalty or get a card for his opponent. Neymar has received backlash for harboring such un-sportsmanship moves. But, it’s something common among soccer players. The trick is to make it seem legit.
