Neymar Scores First Goal On Santos Comeback, Breaks 14-Month Dry Spell
Neymar scored for the first time in over 14 months on Sunday with his first goal for Santos since his return to his boyhood club at the start of the month. The 33-year-old helped Santos beat fourth division Agua Santa 3-1 in a Sao Paulo state championship match. Neymar, who failed to score in his first three games with Santos, stepped up to slot home a penalty in the 14th minute. It was his 137th goal in 229 appearances for the club he has returned to after leaving them in 2013 for Barcelona. It was also his first goal for anyone since October 3, 2023 when he was playing for Al Hilal against Nassaji Mazandaran in the Asian Champions League.
