Santos announced the lineup with Neymar as a starter for the match against Internacional in the 7th round of the Brasileirão on Wednesday (18/3) at Vila Belmiro. The 34-year-old player was not called up by coach Carlo Ancelotti for the Brazil national team, announced on Monday (16), but reacted with brief sadness and a focus on work. Ancelotti justified the absence due to Neymar not being 100% physically.
Young forward Robinho Jr. decided to withdraw the notification sent to Santos after accepting Neymar's apology for the aggression incident that occurred during a training session last Sunday.
