The bracelet scored twice and tear off the label! 33-year-old Neymar announced to the world: I still have oil in my fuel tank!

Brazil was sultry in August, and Santos' home lights cut Neymar's figure into pieces. When the final whistle teared the night sky, the "3-1" on the scoreboard trembled slightly in the wet air - this is the 33-year-old Neymar tearing his opponent's defense with a goal this season. At this moment, time seems to be folded: from the talented teenager at Camp Nou to the "high-paying prisoners" in the Saudi League, to the hunters who are dancing again in the Brazilian League, the gears of fate are making familiar sounds.

Deadly double sound: When football returns to its essence

Faced with Juventus Tudor's iron barrel formation, Neymar demonstrated the textbook-level killer instinct. The 37th and 80th minutes scored twice, and the arc drawn by the ball was exactly the same as the classic goal against Fruminense seven years ago.

"This is not luck, it is the memory engraved in the muscles. " Neymar said after the game, touching the turf. Data shows that he has made 6 goals and 3 assists in 18 appearances this season. In the face of traditional strong teams such as Flamenco and Sao Paulo, he created as many threats as 1.2 times every 90 minutes, which is surprisingly similar to his performance at Barcelona at his peak.

State mystery: The cruel reality revealed by the data

Although Neymar has recovered in Santos this season (4 goals and 3 assists in 13 games), the key indicators are still far from their peak:

Sprint speed: 31.2km/h (2025 data) vs 34.6km/h (2017 Barcelona period)

Confrontation success rate: 44% (2025 Pakistani) vs 58% (2019 Paris period)

Key pass conversion rate: 18% (This season) vs 29% (2017 Champions League knockout stage)

These data are from Opta's latest season report, showing that its breakthrough efficiency and finishing ability have declined significantly.

Countdown 90 days: Turning point in fate

September 14: The "national derby" against Fruminense, if the score is twice, it will activate the number of appearances in the Marseille contract

October 12: The Marseille medical team will conduct a three-day physical fitness assessment, focusing on detecting the recovery of rectus femoris

November 3: Negotiate with the club to terminate the contract, the 8 million euro termination fee may become a transfer obstacle

"Milan Sports" gives a prediction: If it can be proved in the match against Flamenco in September Status, Marseille may start negotiations in October; Benfica will decide whether to quote based on the results of the October physical test. Football philosophy: Never stop breathing

When the reporter asked if he missed Europe, Neymar looked at the children waving Santos scarf in the stands: "Football is a feast of flow, and the cheers of Camp Nou are always in memory, but the eyes of these children are more important at this moment. " He gently tapped the No. 10 jersey on his chest, "You see, the numbers will grow old, but love will always be young. "

Under the night, Neymar touched the turf. In the distance, the lights on the European continent are still flashing. At the age of 33, he still has oil in his tank and is working hard to write an eternal poem belonging to football.
