Nowitzki flops epically in charity soccer game

Found June 23, 2013 on Next Impulse Sports:
PLAYERS: Dirk Nowitzki,  Manuel Neuer
TEAMS: Dallas Mavericks
FC Bayern Munich keeper Manuel Neuer and Dirk Nowitzki teamed up to put on a soccer game for charity this weekend in Germany. The ‘Manuel Neuer and Friends’ team took down Dirk Nowitzki’s ‘All Stars’ by a score of 8-7, but everyone won because of two things. First, the game was for a good cause and secondly because we all got to see Dirk flop in incredibly awkward fashion. You can check out the amazing flop as well as some fantastically awkward photos of Dirk on the pitch.
