Neymar, who grabbed a hat-trick in the encounter, also took himself past 100 goals in the colours of colours of Santos with his first goal on the night.
Ganso revealed though, that as well as being a genius on the football pitch, Neymar is also in the habit of predicting results.
“He is a genius and a prophet,” the Brazil midfielder started. “We were in camp and he told me ‘it will be 3-1 to us, we will open-up 2-0, we will concede a goal and then we will suffer pressure before adding a final goal.” He is a genius.”
Neymar now lies 3rd on the list of Santos’ top-scorers since the era of Pelé, just two goals behind Serginho Chulapa and João Paulo who jointly top the list.
