Neymar shares injured leg photo after Santos draw: "Every time" | OneFootball

Neymar was not very satisfied with the goalless draw between Santos and Fluminense, this Sunday, at Vila Belmiro, for the Brasileirão. The number 10 shared on his social media a photo of his injured leg, indicating that, despite there being no malice, the contacts suffered could result in expulsion.

“I know I can't get irritated and get a yellow card... but every time this happens, even if it's unintentional, it's also a red! My irritation is that these tackles can turn into 10 months out,” wrote Neymar, in a post on his official Instagram account.

Neymar, who returned to the team after recovering from an unspecified physical problem, had a subdued performance, struggling to get past Fluminense's strong marking.

Besides the fouls suffered, the number 10 of Peixe also showed dissatisfaction with the performance of the VAR, which was crucial in disallowing his team's goals. Twice Santos had goals disallowed by the refereeing after review, one of them being millimetric, already in the last minute of the match.

With the result, Santos remains close to the relegation zone but does not have mathematical chances of entering the group of the last four due to Vitória having three fewer victories than the alvinegro team.

The team will only return to the field on September 14, at 4 p.m. (Brasília time), against Atlético-MG, away from home, for the Brasileirão.
