VIDEO: Brazilian U20 player takes time wasting to new level by having a little lie down

Laziness kicked in awfully suddenly

Darragh Murphy

There are a number of methods of time-wasting that players have introduced to their game over the years.

Some are legal, like protecting the ball by the corner flag. Some are illegal, like booting the ball into Row Z after a foul is called. And some are absolutely mental.

Brazilian U20 star Wallace fits into the latter category after he decided to just kick back after he was sent off during his side’s 0-0 draw with Uruguay’s U20s last night.

After being given his marching orders for a second booking, the Gremio midfielder decided to just chillax as though he was hanging out in his bedroom listening to a few tunes.

Wallace refused to leave the pitch until the referee had called for the medical staff to give him a spin off the pitch.

We take our hat off to you, you wily Brazilian you.
