From the moment the team arrived at São Paulo airport, Neymar has been swamped with affection ahead of his big day, with his famous ‘Neymarzetes’ out in force to celebrate the occasion with their idol.
Both nights, his loyal fans have remained outside the hotel until the early hours in order to regale their idol with songs from the street below, with the striker appearing at the window on regular occasions to thank them for their commitment.
Unfortunately for the young attacker, life was not as good inside the hotel. Ambushed by his team-mates, the striker posted this picture on his Twitter of the aftermath.
Flour and chocolate syrup appeared to have been the weapons of choice as Neymar became the victim of his team’s prank.
