Brazilian fans plan to wear Neymar masks for World Cup semi-final

Neymar will miss the rest of the World Cup with a fractured vertebrae, and the people of Brazil are more than a little sad about it.

Fortunately, they have found a way to support the team, and honor the fallen striker at the same time. Unfortunately, their solution involves thousands of creepy Neymar masks.

The cut-outs will obviously look slightly less terrifying when they have actual eyes and instead of a haunting white abyss, but it is still going to be more than a little disquieting for the German team to se thousands of the same face staring back at them during Tuesday's semi-final.

The masks are available courtesy of this Brazilian newspaper:
