<p>Selecao boss Dorival Junior tried shuffling his pack during the final 20 minutes in a bid to find a goal, with Real Madrid superstar Vinicius replaced by teenage wonderkid Endrick. That decision left Neymar – his <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/neymar-goals-scored-during-career-psg-star-stats-in-full/blte11341e9f049d805" target="_blank">country’s all-time leading scorer</a> – confused as he raised his arms in disbelief.</p><center><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="pt" dir="ltr">Neymar was confused with Vinícius Júnior being subbed off. <a href="https://t.co/UQJIKx4dB7">pic.twitter.com/UQJIKx4dB7</a></p>— Ginga Bonito 🇧🇷 (@GingaBonitoHub) <a href="https://twitter.com/GingaBonitoHub/status/1805438031194628283?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 25, 2024</a></blockquote>
