It's the World Cup final on Sunday but one of the biggest legacies of this year's tournament has been the antics of Neymar. The Brazilian whose exaggerated diving enraged Mexican fans after seeing their side knocked out by Brazil in the second round, social media has been awash in Mexico parodying Neymar rolling around the field in anguish.

Two weeks on and Jonas Bjorkman is the latest to 'take the mick' out of Neymar at Wimbledon. The Swede was struck in the back by an serve from his partner Todd Woodbridge at SW19 and reacted by doing his own Neymar, much to the delight of the Wimbledon crowd on Court 3.

The pair were playing in the invitation doubles against Goran Ivanisevic and Mansour Bahrami, the latter who is renowned for entertaining the crowd at Wimbledon with his comic japes. The Frenchman was the first on the scene to aid the stricken Swede, pretending to resuscitate Bjorkman, especially looking like he enjoyed the mouth to mouth!

As well as the World Cup final today, it's also the men's final at Wimbledon between Kevin Anderson and Novak Djokovic. The pair both came through marathon semi finals, Anderson, who is appearing in his first grand slam final beating John Isner in his semi final on Friday 24-22 in the fifth set in a match that lasted well over six hours.

Djokovic came past Rafa Nadal 10-8 in the fifth set of their match which over-ran into Saturday, and the Serb is now big favourite to land a fourth Wimbledon title and a 13th major.
