Last night, the 2010 World Cup hosts, South Africa, took on the 2014 World Cup hosts, Brazil, on home soil. Unsurprisingly, the Brazilians ran away clear winners, with a 5-0 victory. Neymar scored a hat-trick while Oscar and Fernandinho got one each. Fernandinho’s goal was particularly spectacular, view it here.
Besides stealing the show, Neymar also stole the hearts of millions of South Africans, in particular one small kid who found his way onto the pitch. While security personnel try to take the kid away, Neymar comes across and insists on taking the kid with him. The Brazilians then play around with the young kid before involving him in a photo shoot. Let’s just hope this doesn’t become a trend!
