Brazilian star footballer Neymar suffered the biggest defeat of his professional club career after which he broke. During this time he was seen crying bitterly. Santos lost 0–6 to Vasco da Gama in the Brazilian Seri A match. After scoring 5 out of 6 goals in the second half, Neymar, who was in shock, was seen crying after full time.
With this victory, Vasco da Gama, ranked 16th, was 19 points back two points from Santos. Both clubs were just a little ahead of the four teams with four teams. Lucas Piton was followed by Liverpool and former forward Cottinho of Barcelona scoring two goals for Vasco in the second half. The goals of David Korea D Fonseca, Ryan and Danilo Nevece further strengthened the better scorline.
Neymar was comforted by Fernando Dinz, a member of the associate staff and head coach of Vasco da Gama when he was returning to the dressing room. Santos expressed his displeasure over the result and protested by back towards the field. As a result of this derogatory defeat, head coach Kleber Xavier was immediately dismissed.
During this, Neymar said that, I am ashamed. I am completely disappointed with our performance. Fans have every right to protest, obviously without violence… but if they want to abuse and insult, then they have full rights.
Neymar further said that, this is a feeling of extreme embarrassment. I have never seen this before in life. This happened misfortly. Tears were angry. Unfortunately I cannot help in any way. Well it was completely nonsense. This is the truth. Neymar also received the third Yellow card of this season, sprinkling salt on the burn. With this, he was out of the next match against Bahia.
