The Paris Saint-Germain star lit up an otherwise sterile friendly with Croatia - and proved his sense of timing is still impeccable
He’s back!
It took Neymar 98 days to get himself back on a football pitch, and just 26 minutes to light it up. Welcome back.
Brazil’s 2-0 win over Croatia at Anfield will not go down as a classic by any means, but the Paris Saint-Germain star ensured those who were there will remember it. His goal, smashed home in front of the Kop, settled matters in favour of Tite’s side.
Nice timing.
