In his personal battle to be present with the Brazilian national team at the 2026 World Cup, Neymar had a “different” night in Argentina.
On the pitch in Santos’ 1-1 draw with San Lorenzo, the star wearing the No. 10 shirt was cheered by the Argentines and responded with smiles and greetings to wheelchair-bound fans who were at the edge of the field.
After the final whistle, Neymar left the pitch to applause from the San Lorenzo fans and with Ezequiel Herrera’s shirt.
