Neymar bursts into tears as Santos star is subbed off with apparent injury in first game back

Neymar had missed several matches for Santos due to injury, and in his highly anticipated return to the field, he was forced to leave during the first half with another apparent physical setback.

The excitement surrounding Neymar’s return to Brazil’s top flight was immense, and the forward initially lived up to the hype with strong performances in his first appearances for Santos. However, in recent weeks, physical issues have once again become a major concern, and on Wednesday night, he was forced off the pitch early once more.

In the match between Santos and Atletico Mineiro, part of Matchday 4 of the Brazilian league, Neymar was included in the starting lineup but only lasted 34 minutes before being substituted by Benjamin Rollheiser. The 33-year-old superstar left the field in tears, visibly frustrated by yet another injury scare.
