It is the unity of a team that keeps you going through tough times. Same thing happened with Brazil’s national team. Neymar, even though he is not physically present with the Brazilian national team, is there for their moral support. Neymar was quick to lend support to his teammate Rodrygo after claims of racial abuse by fans. The fans on social media made offensive comments toward the Real Madrid starlet after a row with Lionel Messi.

This was not the first time a player complained about such embarrassing behavior by the fans. With the emergence of social media, there have been increased reports of such abuses online. Therefore, unity in such situations can go a long way in bringing comfort to the players and raising awareness among people.

Neymar compliments Rodrygo for his fight

Neymar was not able to play for his country due to an ACL tear and a meniscus injury to his right knee. However, he showed constant support via social media. The Al Hilal star also cares about his teammates individually, as he took Rodrygo’s side after being abused by fans on social media. Neymar added a story on Instagram yesterday saying, “Your shine is annoying; don’t ever stop,” as translated by DeepL.

Neymar also encouraged the youngster to keep being who he is, irrespective of other people’s opinions. Rodrygo had earlier posted about receiving a lot of abuse on his social media accounts.

The events that took place in the match against Argentina led to a lot of split opinions online and led to hatred among the two fans. Rodrygo claimed that people will act like criminals if the players don’t live the way those people want. He also said that he would not stop being what he is, despite the efforts of the fans.
