Neymar from hero to villain as Santos draw with Mirassol | OneFootball

Santos ended in a 1-1 draw with Mirassol this Wednesday, in the 34th round of the Brazilian Championship. The standout name of the match was Neymar.

The attacking midfielder had an excellent first half. Just three minutes in, he scored the first goal of the match. The number 10 was smart in his movement and found himself one-on-one with Walter after a beautiful pass from Lautaro Díaz.

In the second half, however, he became the villain. Just over 10 minutes in, he committed a silly penalty on Reinaldo. The referee reviewed the play on VAR and called the foul on the black-and-white captain. On the penalty kick, the left-back hit the back of the net.

According to Sofascore data, Neymar finished the match with one goal, three key passes, six shots (two on target), and six duels won.
