Belém fan asks husband for pix to see Neymar, says he hung up on her | OneFootball

Kátia Silva, 53, tried to see Neymar as he arrived in Belém on Tuesday, a pursuit that upset her husband after she asked for a pix to fund the trip.

"I told him I had an emergency, send me a pix of R$ 50 now. He sent it. When I said I was waiting for Neymar to arrive, he hung up on me," she told ge.

Neymar arrived in Belém on Tuesday, 4 August to join the Santos squad before the Copa do Brasil last-16 second leg against Remo at the Mangueirão, kick-off 21:30. The first leg finished 0-0.

Early that morning she got a lift from her son-in-law, who left his lunch to take her to the airport, but she did not see the Santos No 10. She then tried to reach the team hotel using a ride app and needed funds.

"I like him like a son, it is a mother's love. I think he is handsome and above all an excellent professional," she added. "People talk about diving, but I still like him. I think he has grown, and those around him have helped. Let us respect."

Whoever wins in normal time reaches the quarter-finals and takes R$ 4 million, while any draw sends the tie to penalties.
