On Friday at the Arena Pernambuco, Neymar will face Uruguayan striker Luis Suarez for the second time in his career.
Today they’re Barcelona teammate, and the two do not hide that they have a great friendship off the pitch. In an interview ahead of the game, the Brazilian captain joked about the fact of not being able to warm up next to Suárez. He said: “We were talking in messages that we would miss each other during warm up, we always warm up together, joking… Our friendship .. Well we have a great friendship. Not just with him but I, Suárez and Messi, in addition to the work in the field, which is the most important.”
For Neymar, there is no comparison between Barcelona’s attacking trio, where he has Lionel Messi and Luis Suárez as partners, and the Brazilian national team, where he has the company of Willian and Douglas Costa. He added: “You cannot compare because the schemes are different and they’re different players. And to play with Douglas and William is a great honor, I’ve always said that. They are two great players, players who can make a difference.”
