Neymar Jr. scored the first Olympic goal in his best game since his return for Santos –

When Neymar Jr. returned to Santos, the Brazilian club in which he played before going to Barcelona and Paris, everyone wondered how long he would need to regain his shape. He was one of the best players in the world.

Last night, however, part of the magic was back in 3-0 victory for Santos Nets Inter de Limeira, an important victory for the team to qualify for the quarter-finals in the Paulistão tournament. Neymar was the key to victory and said goodbye to the two goals from Tiquinho, which scored an “Olympic goal” directly from the corner. It is his first goal that was scored in this way, a kind of gate that neither Cristiano nor Messi did to score a goal.

It was his second goal for Santos in his second term for Santos, which is said to be only six months Neymar has a possible return to Europe, probably in Barcelona or the North American MLS, where he could return in Inter Miami in Messi and Luis Suárez.
