US EditionNeymar Scores Milestone 2 for Santos and Boosts Case to Be in Brazil World Cup Squad
Neymar scored twice to reach 151 goals and enter Santos' top 10, boosting his chances for Brazil's World Cup squad after recovering from knee surgeries.
- On Thursday, Neymar scored twice in Santos' 2-1 win over Vasco da Gama, moving into Santos' top 10 with 151 goals.
- Because Ancelotti insists on fully fit players, Neymar's comeback faced extra pressure due to recent ACL injury and knee surgery, as he aims for the Brazil World Cup squad.
- He opened with a powerful crossed shot and added a lob, and Neymar told SporTV, 'But today I scored twice and that's what matters.'
- Local players and analysts defended Neymar's credentials despite inconsistent form, and Vanderlei Luxemburgo, former Brazil and Real Madrid coach, told Globo Esporte, 'I am almost 100% sure he will take Neymar.'
- Pelé remains Santos' top scorer with 1,061 goals, and Neymar is Brazil's all-time top goalscorer with 79 in 125 matches.
