Lucas Silva Fonseca (born 2 August 1985) is a Brazilian footballer as a central defender.
On 18 January 2015, Lucas Fonseca had his contract with Bahia terminated by mutual consent.[1] On 19 January, he transferred to Chinese Super League side Tianjin Teda.[2]
Fonseca was widely ridiculed after a match between Bahia and Flamengo when the center back's blatant simulation earned him a second yellow card in the thirtieth minute. Afterwards many internet memes and videos sprang up poking fun of Fonseca's dive.[3][4]
