Brazilian scores during win at Internacional de Limeira‘They teased me … now I’m the one who’s going to score’
Jeering fans from Internacional de Limeira provoked Neymar to score the first olimpico of his career, the Brazil international said on Sunday, after guiding Santos to a 3-0 win in the Paulista Championship.
Neymar scored directly from a corner in the 27th minute, bending in a right-footed shot which struck the far post and ended up in the goal. The 33-year-old also provided two assists for Tiquinho Soares to score a first-half double. “They teased me and I said, now I’m the one who’s going to score the goal,” Neymar told TNT Sports.
