Pure emotion! Neymar's Brazil comeback tugs at the heartstrings

Neymar made his last appearance for the Seleção almost three years ago. After numerous injuries, Brazil‘s superstar has made it back to the grand World Cup stage. A moment he himself had been eagerly awaiting — and, of course, so had millions of others.

In the third group match against Scotland, the time had finally come. Neymar was brought on in the closing stages and once again showed flashes of his exceptional class. Even before kickoff, the media attention on the sidelines was absolutely insane. 

You could see Neymar’s excitement in every second. The moments between him and his family were especially touching. 

It remained emotional after the match as well. 

With first place in the group safely secured and a very convincing performance at this World Cup, Brazil looks capable of much more. Perhaps with Neymar in a key role too. Whether as an emotional leader or even on the pitch? The next few weeks will show.
