Neymar in tears after suffered injuries in 100. Santos’s home game

Neymar left the terrain in tears only 34 minutes in his first start in the Brazilian series and the championship this season after injuring his leg on what was 100.

The 33-year-old striker wore a special T-shirt number 100 to mark the reach of the century to perform for his boyish club on their home ground, the Villa Belmiro Stadium.

But the celebrations were interrupted because the Brazilian record goalkeeper signaled all the time on the bench shortly after the half -hour mark that it could no longer continue and it was visibly emotional when it leaves the ground on Buba.

Santos won the 2-0 match against Atletico-MG, and the first Neymar’s start in the Brazilian league of this term after returning to the team against Fluminense last weekend after a six-week absence with a thigh injury.

They could see him tighten the same thigh, suggesting that he might have suffered a repeated injury.
