An absurd scene shakes Brazil. Neymar has been the victim of an unbelievable mistake

In a surreal scene that sums up Neymar’s difficult phase, the Brazilian star was left in an embarrassing and painful situation during Santos’ game against Curitiba on Sunday night after he was mistakenly sent off by the fourth official and refused to return.

A colossal error by the fourth umpire

While Neymar was treated on the pitch for a calf injury, his counterpart Robinho Jr prepared to come on as a substitute.

But the fourth official made a blunder as he got confused and thought that Robinho was going to replace Neymar and brought him on instead, even though the substitution was not intended for the Brazilian star.

Neymar loses his temper

The victim of this administrative error was the son of the legend Robinho, who entered the field, and Neymar remained outside the field.

The former Paris Saint-Germain player tried to return to continue playing, but the refereeing team flatly refused and stood by their decision despite the absurdity of the situation.

Losing his nerve, Neymar took the official substitution paper and waved it in front of the television cameras before angrily protesting at the referees, a scene that reflected the extent of his frustration.

From tears to anger

The embarrassing situation comes just hours after Neymar broke down in tears while listening to Brazil’s national anthem before the game, in a scene that sparked widespread speculation about his fate with the national team.
