Fan does a rivaldo and pretends he’s hurt after being touched by player

A Colombian ball boy faked an injury after being tapped by Gonzalo Jara in a ridiculous series of events.

The not-so-young man fell to the floor holding his chest after being brushed by the former West Brom man, and was probably lucky to not go into the referee’s notebook for simulation.

The bizarre incident occurred during Corinthians game against Universidad de Chile[/caption]

The incident which was strangely reminiscent of  the time Brazil legend Rivaldo feigned a head injury during the 2002 world cup.

The peculiar situation took place in the Arena Corinthians stadium during a game between Corinthians and Universidad de Chile.

The play-acting overshadowed the actual match which saw hosts' Corinthians come out 2-0 victors.

However, Jara is not a stranger to bizarre affairs and back in 2015 during the Chile's Copa America tie with Uruguay, he was responsible for sticking a finger up Edison Cavani's backside.

The Chilean was booked for the incident at the time and then received a retrospective three-match ban and $7,500 fine.
