In the final of the Saudi Super Cup that ended in the early morning of April 12, Beijing time, Riyadh Crescent swept Jeddah United 4-1 and successfully won the championship with a miracle of 34 consecutive victories in all competitions.
In this game, Neymar, who plays for the Crescent team, did not play due to injury, but the 32-year-old Brazilian superstar came to the scene to cheer on his teammates. After winning the championship, Neymar also joined the team in the carnival celebration. Neymar also posted a photo of himself celebrating his championship on social media for the first time.
In the photo, Neymar wears a cap and celebrates with Captain Crescent. It can be seen from Neymar's smile that although he did not have the opportunity to appear, the thrill of "lying down" the championship still makes him feel quite comfortable and enjoyable.
In the summer window last year, Neymar bid farewell to the mainstream European league and landed in the Saudi league for a transfer fee of 90 million euros. In order to attract Neymar to join, Riyadh Crescent offered an annual salary of about 100 million euros.
However, from a competitive point of view, this recruitment was not successful. Since joining, Neymar has only made five appearances for Riyadh Crescent, scoring one goal. On October 18 last year, Neymar was injured in a match against Uruguay for Brazil.
Since then, Neymar has been away from the field for half a year and is still recovering from injury. However, Neymar, who is recovering from injury, has already won the Saudi Super Cup with the team, and it is not surprising that the Saudi league championship is basically in the bag.
Seeing Cristiano Ronaldo, who also plays in the Saudi league but is tired, and Harry Kane, who joined Bayern, despite his excellent personal data, may be empty with the team. It has to be said that Neymar has once again demonstrated the importance of professional players in terms of selection.
