9 Minutes Of Neymar Jr's Goals At The FIFA World Cup

Little flick through here, three Brazilians forward, it is Neymar, is this his moment? Neymar! From Brazil, it's the golden moment from the golden boy that Brazil celebrates ecstatically. How they needed that. Only trailed since minute 11, but Neymar writes his name into the script of the 2014 World Cup. A minute after picking up a yellow card, he picks up goal number one for the home nation. It had to be him, didn't it, somehow? Oscar actually is the one who deserves the praise for battling away. Neymar took it on, weaved into position, it wasn't the strongest shot. Oh, it's a good ball here, and a turn and a shot here maybe. A penalty kick! A penalty kick for Brazil. The Japanese referee stares at the spot, races away, shows a yellow card, I think to Lovren. He is the man, but only just. The fingers of Pletykoza almost denied him the glory. Neymar has his second, Cafu and Kaká applaud. Maybe Brazil are on their way to yet another win in front of their adoring fans. The smile belongs to the 22-year-old, and that makes it 13 goals in 16 matches for Neymar. He says his thanks to the heavens. Again from Luis Gustavo. Neymar! They so desired, and a stadium erupts. Simplicity when it came. Music to the ears of Neymar. Here's Neymar, little bit of a corridor in which to run, and he doesn't miss often when in an opportunity. He might be carrying the expectations of his nation on his shoulders, but he's showing no signs of buckling. He's the star turn again. Neymar 2, Cameroon 1. A dash and a darkness, a swivel of the hips and a clinical finish. Suddenly there's plenty of relief swirling around this stadium again. And back they go again to defend. Can Brazil really put icing on the cake with a second goal here? There is a big chance, it's 2, it's 2. Brazil are on their way now, and Neymar! He doesn't get the chance from the penalty spot, he does get the chance from three yards out. And this scoreline looks emphatic. Neymar gets his first World Cup goal of 2018. His 56th for Brazil, and his fifth in World Cup finals. Tite is now a happy man, a satisfied man. No one more satisfied than the world's costliest player, Neymar. Who knocks it into the net, see if the superstar can produce something special here. It is Neymar, clever backheel to Willian, into the area. Willian! Minutes into the game, the celebrations continue. The Mexicans will be hoping there are questions being asked. Play from Willian in particular there. And the occasion is illuminated by the Brazilian goal. You see Salcedo there, he may be the last line back. As Willian pulls the ball back, it goes beyond the keeper. Beyond Gabriel Jesus, but not beyond Neymar, who has his second World Cup goal of 2018. Neymar, skipping away from one and another. On from Danilo. Oh, now that's an interesting one, and it's a penalty! Oh, it just goes from bad to worse for Korea Republic. Caught napping by Richarlison. And Brazil have an opportunity already to double their lead. This could be a huge moment in the game already. For 2-0, after just 12 minutes. Makes it look so simple, as Brazil have the game. No wonder they're jumping for joy. It is a blockbuster Brazil start. That's all about the mentality, a mental battle between those two. Neymar and Kim. A Korea Republic goal. Takes a long time to start his run up. Goalkeeper could do nothing, even though it didn't seem that far away from him. Trying to outwit each other. Neymar the winner that time. Marquinhos. Neymar. Into Neymar. Could be a chance here. Goes for the return. It's Neymar! National record. Number 77. For Brazil. And what a big one. You need special players to make the difference in games like this. At times like this. My goodness. Neymar drops right into that category. That is absolutely sensational. And the poise, the balance. Everything at the end is just as important as the run that precedes it. That is quite brilliant. How he goes around that goalkeeper. And then puts it in the roof of the net. Because there's a defender coming back on the line. You roll that over the line. Sosa might get there. You can't get it when it's up there. In the top of the goal. That's just an outstanding goal. It's the moment everybody has been waiting for. And Neymar has provided it. Tonino floats it in. Neymar rolls it in.
