Neymar: The Perfect Chaos (2022) s01e01 Episode Script

1
[interviewer] I have a question, Ney.
How would you open this series? Tell me.
I think I'd open this series
with
all those quotes
Uh
from people talking, from news articles.
Quotes about my behavior
Judging me, you know?
"Neymar is a jerk"
People calling me a monster.
"Neymar is a monster," this and that.
Have some quotes pop up.
Go through them,
people shaming me, and then
they'd meet me. [laughs]
[vocalizing]
[upbeat music playing]
[reporter 1] Teach him some manners,
or we're gonna create a monster.
- Leaders keep it cool.
- [reporter 2] He's no leader.
[reporter in French] He cries.
He falls down. He's a spoiled brat.
[woman rapping in Portuguese]
[in Spanish] He's quick. He's smart.
The take-off power he has,
his speed with the ball.
[whistle blows]
He's unbeatable.
[fans cheering]
[Mbappé in French]
We all know his strengths.
One of the best in the world.
[rapping continues]
[fans cheering]
[Beckham in English] He plays with flair.
He plays with passion.
Everything he does is about entertainment.
The things he wears,
the things he does to his hair.
The tattoos, you know?
Everything that he does, you know?
He is very influential in that side.
[man] Neymar! Neymar!
[rapping continues]
If you are a soccer fan,
you are undoubtedly familiar
with superhuman known as Neymar Jr.
[Wagner in Portuguese]
He became a role model.
Children all over the world love him.
Neymar gets a haircut,
then everyone does the same.
[rapping continues]
[whistle blows]
[Juca in Portuguese] He's an easy target
because he's hot-headed.
There's always a designated player
to rile him up,
get him red-carded.
[Alves] He's in constant chaos, you know?
He often creates it.
[chuckling]
He seems to enjoy
that perfect chaos. [laughs]
[Juca] I fear he'll become
a classic case of someone
who never reached his full potential.
[fans cheering]
[cars honking]
[Neymar in Portuguese]
Since I first set foot in Paris
- It's been two years
- [crowd cheering]
- [yells]
- [whistle blows]
I'd say I've experienced
more struggle than glory.
[mellow music playing]
[crowd chanting]
[crowd chanting]
[reporter 1 in English] Breaking news is a
world-record deal confirmed for Neymar.
PSG, as of this minute, have confirmed
the signing of the Brazilian.
[reporter 2] He has now signed to become
the most expensive footballer
in world football history.
[reporter in French]
Two hundred twenty-two million euros.
[in Portuguese] As the president said,
our main goal here today
is the Champions League.
That's why I'm here,
to make history in Paris.
[reporter in English] This is turning
a club that's lived in the shadows
of the European elite for years
suddenly into a new stratosphere.
A club that never won a Champions title
has managed to attract
one of the biggest names in football
from one of the biggest clubs in football.
[crowd chanting]
Neymar! Neymar!
Neymar! Neymar! Neymar! ♪
Neymar! Neymar! Neymar! Neymar! ♪
[breathing heavily]
[Neymar in Portuguese] That's all I ever
wanted. I was happy with the decision.
I went to Paris.
- Then it got tough
- It sucks.
It fucking sucks. [laughs]
Fuck!
Fuck me!
[announcer speaking French]
[crowd exclaiming]
[whistle blows]
[Thiago in Portuguese]
It was hard at first.
Neymar arrived as the star he is.
That sometimes makes
people jealous, you know?
Certain people get jealous.
[Alves] No matter how big you are,
every change demands some adaptation.
You start living
in a completely different culture,
interacting with different people.
[cameras clicking]
[Mbappé in French] When I arrived at PSG,
the plan was to support Neymar.
Neymar is the only star, the cornerstone.
He came to Paris with a mission,
and I'm here to support him.
[indistinct yelling]
[crowd cheering]
[reporter in English] In training, they've
been told not to tackle him too hard.
He gets special privileges.
He gets, like, two physiotherapists.
So, is he a diva?
[man] Yes!
[crowd cheering]
[man shouting indistinctly]
[all cheering]
[man 1 in English] Neymar is full on.
- [man 2] It's complicated.
- [man 1] He wants to win.
He wants, uh, success. He wants success,
but Paris is difficult.
[man 3 in French]
We don't really like him.
He got our hopes up,
but it's hard to like the guy.
- He does nothing.
- Disrespect.
[Raí in Portuguese] The French have
an acute sense of criticism.
Uh, it's something that athletes or anyone
who becomes exposed to it
must be ready to face.
They demand a lot too.
[crowd chanting]
[Raí] Expectations, like dreams,
are limitless.
[chanting continues]
[Neymar Sr.] Let's do it your way,
then I'll get to it.
- If you're not interested in it.
- [interviewer] Yes, we're interested.
All right? We can do it your way, okay?
Let's follow your plan first.
[interviewer] We wanted you
to tell us his story.
- That's my
- I can't do it like that.
That's unusual, but let's do it.
I'm anxious about doing this,
documenting this to show who he really is.
You must first understand Neymar.
[suspenseful music playing]
[crowd chanting]
[whistle blows]
[inaudible]
[Neymar Sr. in Portuguese]
We discuss it a lot, as a company,
how to manage the career
of an athlete of his stature.
You could say, "You're his dad."
"You have complete control
over Neymar's career."
But can I control him?
No.
[Neymar] I'm criticized a lot
more than I deserve, for example.
It's hard sometimes.
I'm talking about family, close friends.
You're Batman to them.
If you don't know me, then I'm the Joker.
- [Medina] Is it cold there?
- [Neymar] Very cold.
This is the most jealous guy on Earth.
- He is.
- Me?
[laughing]
This is
I'll make sure
this is part of my documentary.
[chuckles]
- [Medina] When are you coming to Brazil?
- [Neymar] On the 22nd.
- [Medina] The 22nd?
- Mm-hm.
- [Medina] Go fuck yourself then.
- [both laugh]
["Ponta De Lança" playing]
Look who's here. All good, bro?
[speaking indistinctly]
- How are you?
- [Neymar] Great.
["Ponta De Lança" continues]
Police? Calm down,
it's just a homeless guy.
- They were looking for him.
- [Neymar] Are they beating him up?
That's Brazil. It gets worse.
[speaking indistinctly]
[chuckles]
["Ponta De Lança" continues]
Like the Titanic,
in the middle of nowhere in Hawaii.
[woman] Neymar, a picture with the kids?
- [Neymar] Sure.
- Thanks.
[kid] That's mine.
- Got it? You're welcome.
- [woman] Thanks, Neymar.
No problem.
- A trophy
- I'm not friends with
Hello?
- What's up, son?
- [Davi] Dad?
- You're here?
- I am.
I'm coming over.
All right?
His message from this morning.
- [Davi] Daddy
- I had just landed.
[Davi] Can you come over, please?
I miss you.
I'm giving him a scooter for Christmas.
Damn. [laughs]
I pulled it out
and filled the box with books.[laughs]
[laughing]
[Neymar] It was his mom's idea.
His mom said
he doesn't like going to school.
[laughing]
- I want to see his face.
- Poor boy.
- No, it will be funny. [laughs]
- It will be cool. [laughs]
- [Carol] I have some friends over.
- No problem.
- [Carol] A bunch of cool people.
- That's okay.
[door opens]
[soft music playing]
[Neymar] Where's Davi?
- Davi?
- [Neymar] I'll leave it here.
[soft music continues]
[Neymar grunts]
I got you a present.
Hang on.
I'll film you opening it.
- What did you want?
- [Davi] A scooter.
[Carol scatting]
[man scatting]
[Carol] Wow, a bunch of books, Davi!
[man chuckles]
[Carol] So many books, honey.
Thanks, Junior!
So many, that's cool!
You need to study hard.
[Davi] But it's not in English.
It's not? Dad got the wrong ones.
Say, "Thanks, Dad."
Dad, you failed big time.
It's not in English.
[laughing]
- Just trolling you.
- [Davi] See?
[Neymar Sr.] It's not enough to come here
and talk about Neymar,
discuss Neymar.
It's easy to show his goals, his titles,
but we want to share stories, right?
And it's an ongoing story.
[upbeat music playing]
[Neymar] I grew up in Praia Grande.
I remember I was really happy there.
I played with my friends on the street.
We played football on the street
near the candy store.
[Neymar Sr.]
I played professionally in Brazil too.
In the 1980s.
[indistinct chatter]
[Neymar] They were rivals on the field.
Afterwards, both teams would get together
and have some beer.
I'd play with the kids of other players.
We all became friends.
We'd be playing in the slums,
where people were humble and simple.
Like many Brazilians,
Neymar developed his skills
and became familiar with football
in the streets.
More specifically, this street,
B Street in Jardim Gloria,
in the municipality of Praia Grande.
[dogs barking]
[Neymar Sr.] It was so
Uh
We come from a poor family.
We didn't have resources to invest
and get the boy playing football.
[man] It was in 1998.
I was putting a football team together
to open an academy.
[Neymar Sr.] Betinho saw him running
through the stands in a football match.
I was an amateur player back then.
I was playing there.
- What's your name?
- Neymar.
- [Neymar Sr.] A bit louder.
- Neymar.
[Neymar Sr.] Your parents' names?
Neymar as well, and Nadine is my mom.
Funny thing is, that boy could shine.
Big ears, scrawny kid, but he could shine.
[commentator speaking Portuguese]
Wow!
He was born for it.
It's all him.
God blessed him with the gift of football.
Well, although football wasn't something
that brought me money and success,
I realized my son
was going down the same path.
[Neymar] Man, having my dad in the stands
was like having him inside my head.
You know the angel and the devil
over your shoulder? [giggles]
That was my dad.
When I was little,
his tips made a difference
because he had experience as a player.
He helped me stand out.
It was really great.
Something happened when I was little.
It was one of the few times
my dad got on my case.
Uh, actually, he rarely gave me a scolding
when I was little.
One of the things he taught me
was when he'd ask me,
"Why didn't you run?"
I'd say, "Well"
"The other kids didn't run,
so I didn't run either."
The look he gave me,
he was pissed.
I thought, "I fucked up."
I was really mad.
"No, now you'll run by yourself."
"Son of a gun."
I started calling him names.
"What? You're talking back?"
"You go and work your butt off in there."
"You must make your teammates
believe you all can do it."
"Try to motivate them somehow."
"Try to motivate them
by running more than they do."
It's something that's stayed with me.
Uh, my dad gave me a scolding
and looked so upset
because I had the same attitude
as my teammates.
If they didn't run, I wouldn't either.
That's something, that since that day,
has always stayed with me.
[Lima] "Fuck, everyone's talking,
but I've never seen him play."
I was mesmerized
by what I saw.
He invited Neymar
to play for Santos Football Club
on a brand new team.
[upbeat music playing]
[Bernardo] Santos is a city
that exports the most athletes,
the most football players, in the world.
It's been happening
pretty much since Pelé.
Pelé was made in the Vila too.
[Neymar Sr.] Who's your favorite player?
Pelé is my biggest idol.
I was told,
"He's a forward, way up there."
I said, "No way. A scrawny kid like that?"
I would tease him.
"You're too scrawny, kid."
"Defenders will beat you up."
[Juca] When Neymar
first started playing we'd say,
"That's impossible."
"Lightning struck twice at Vila Belmiro."
"First it was Pelé, now it's Neymar."
[indistinct chatter]
[man] We're at Bar do Alemão
at Santos Football Club.
This is where fans come.
I was the president of the fan club.
[cheering] Let's go, Santos!
[chuckles]
My friend told me about Neymar,
an 8-year-old playing futsal at Gremetal
who was a great player.
He lived around the corner, played here.
We took him under our wing,
and he was a great kid.
Nice kid, always talking to everyone.
[reporter] Fans call out your name,
and they already consider you a star.
How are you dealing with your sudden fame?
I just stay humble, talk to everyone.
That's about it.
The one dealing with the clubs
talking about me
is my manager, my dad.
[Neymar Sr.] When he was 14, my son
got invited to the tryouts at Real Madrid.
[commentator 1 speaking indistinctly]
[commentator 2 laughing]
Of course! Watching Zidane
and Robinho play, I'm in!
[Wagner] He outran the other kids.
Technically, nobody could take
the ball away from him.
Everyone was in awe.
[Beckham in English] Yes,
obviously he is a great player.
Yes, he is a great talent.
But for me, more importantly,
he's always been a great kid.
You know,
I met him when he was very young,
and he's always been the most polite,
the most humble,
and the most excitable kid that I've met.
[in Portuguese] I really liked the city,
and it's good to be here.
My first time in Europe, of course.
I didn't understand anything,
the food was different.
I wasn't used to adding
avocado to my food.
Avocado everywhere.
I mean, avocado is a fruit to me.
[Alex] They had a chance
to change their lives,
move to Madrid, his dad had a job offer.
Suddenly, the son says,
"I don't want to stay. I want to go back."
- [Neymar] My friends, everything.
- [man] What else?
[Neymar] Everything, even school.
[Neymar Sr.] It's tough.
He makes the decision.
It's not me or the family. It's up to him.
I guess, if you put it off
He decides. His choice.
We give Neymar options
to choose what he wants.
We talked, but it wasn't the right time.
We can't make that decision for him.
He turned down the Madrid offer
and made it big going to Santos.
I saw an opportunity
that could benefit not only my family,
but my son, above all.
It was the first million
we, our family, made.
Neymar was 14 years old.
[crowd cheering]
[Neymar] For me,
2010 was the fastest year of my life.
- [crowd cheering]
- [fans clamoring]
[crowd cheering]
It went from zero to 100.
[upbeat music playing]
[crowd cheering]
We were scoring goals. We got a good team.
We were happy and very joyful.
Every time we scored, we'd celebrate.
It became our thing.
[upbeat music continues]
Wow, wow!
Now you're killing me ♪
Oh, if I get my hands on you
Oh, if I get my hands on you ♪
Not a good idea.
Wow, now you're killing me ♪
If I get my hands on you ♪
Oh, if I get my hands on you ♪
[chopper blades whirring]
I'm face to face with the golden boy
of Brazilian football.
Neymar is the man, the star,
the idol, the hero.
Everyone admires him,
and all the girls want him, right?
[fans clamoring]
I love you!
Neymar!
Then we had the Neymarheads
or Neymarmania, you know?
FAN TATTOOS NEYMAR'S NAME
[fans screaming]
[reporter] A group of fans
managed to evade security measures.
[woman] Neymar, I love you!
[Neymar] My dad was pissed
about the mohawk.
Now he's pissed when I don't have it.
Am I wrong?
Everyone talked about the mohawk.
[Neymar Sr.] His brand blew up
so much back then.
We answered when opportunity knocked.
He really captivated the Brazilian people.
He was the face of many brands in Brazil.
You turned the TV on,
there he was, selling deodorant,
gas, chocolate, shampoo, whatever.
[music stops]
[producer] Stay silent on the set, please.
[somber music playing]
[Neymar Sr.] Then, in 2010,
Neymar was making
$500,000 dollars in wages.
And we earned $11 million dollars.
I made 20 times more in a year
than Neymar did playing football.
[cameraman] Arm down now, Neymar.
[Neymar] It was all very quick.
It started early on.
I started young, made the national team,
became famous, rich.
If life were in slow motion
and things moved slowly,
I'd think more calmly, right?
It's tough. I'm hot-headed.
That 2010 game,
when I was coaching Atlético de Goiás.
He told his captain off,
then his coach.
I've rarely seen such an impolite athlete
as this boy Neymar.
Teach him some manners,
or we're creating a monster.
I feel bad about it.
I must say,
I felt no pleasure in saying it.
He lost all notion of hierarchy,
of those who give orders,
and those who follow orders.
If you blur those lines,
things get unbalanced.
"I can do whatever I want."
That's what ended up happening.
[scoffs] It really fucked me up
when he said that.
No overreaction.
If they don't correct it now,
we'll truly create a monster.
Of course, Neymar was a kid then,
and he was bound to make mistakes.
Nobody patted him on the back.
We actually said, "You made a mistake."
Yes, he made a mistake,
but nobody showed his apology afterward.
Sorry, it's not an apology.
I ask for forgiveness
for what I did yesterday.
I even made my parents upset.
My dad, my mom. My mom was at the stadium.
[in French] We can't judge him.
We must go back and remember he was 14,
and he could only trust his dad,
who knew how to sell him.
[phone ringing]
[in Portuguese] We created mechanisms
to protect him. We created a structure.
We have over 215 employees
across his organization.
Uh
A branding office, a management office,
a media office.
They all make it so
we can use Neymar's image
in the best way possible.
[camera clicking]
NR Sports is a management company.
It manages Neymar's image and career.
It all starts here.
[Neymar] Fuck, I'm lazy today.
[Alex] Every contract,
for him as an athlete,
as well as Neymar the celebrity,
so to speak,
the spokesperson.
His career and image is managed here
by the NR Sports staff.
[woman] Neymar, the father
He and Nadine
have been owners
and presidents of NR Sports
since Neymar was 12.
They've been managing his career
to this day.
It goes beyond being a father,
a manager, a family member.
It's totally based on trust.
[man] It's about perpetuity.
You sell Neymar's image as an asset.
We know his value when he's playing.
Once off the field, he loses that value.
That's a fact.
He won't lose all value,
but it will decrease.
[phone ringing]
It upsets me, you know?
I was taking to Neymar Senior and I said,
"It upsets me
because we're not valued for our worth."
"We're worth what we have, what we offer."
"That's sad."
It's all I ask of him.
His human side,
his spiritual side.
[man 1 in English] And action!
[man 2 in Portuguese] He's being
sought after now in the digital age.
Nowadays,
they come to Neymar
to do business related to that.
All right.
Everyone's on Instagram.
Your ugly faces are on Instagram.
[chuckling]
[Wagner] Neymar's from a different
generation than Pelé,
the best in the world.
Neymar is from the media generation.
He's media worthy.
[Vincent in French]
Storytelling sells papers.
Neymar is the main character.
Neymar actually sells.
Most importantly,
Neymar embodies the story.
There's no show without a character
people can identify with
and find interesting.
[cameras clicking]
[man in English] Neymar, picture, picture!
[man] Neymar became a brand.
When you're a brand,
it's like a superhero.
You need to be linked
to the promise you create.
Finally!
[laughing]
[fan 1 in French] Neymar is a good player,
but he should stop acting
like a celebrity.
That's not what we want for PSG.
[fan 2] He used to be on top
and showed us he could do anything,
but he hasn't tried hard enough.
He started to put on weight.
He should practice more.
[Vincent] His fame could be measured
in Twitter and Instagram followers.
That's what made him
an international brand,
but it pulled him away
from the heart of the sport,
from getting trophies instead of fame.
[reporter in English] It just seems that
everybody at PSG is bending over backwards
to appease Neymar.
And he has responsibilities
that are greater than just to himself.
[in Portuguese] I don't care about
what others think of me,
my actions,
how I play.
I'm very transparent, very honest.
I don't really care.
Fuck, "Neymar is out partying,"
or whatever.
How about my performance, what I do?
Who cares? You're pissed at me?
That's your problem. [scoffs]
It's my life. I do what I want.
As I always say,
"Not even Jesus was able
to please everyone."
He didn't please everyone
when he was little, so
It's up to God.
The more you give, the more they demand.
[upbeat music playing]
[whirring]
["É Preciso Dar Um Jeito,
Meu Amigo" playing]
Don't know about you.
I'm ready to party. Fuck it.
- [Neymar kisses] Hi, my love.
- Hi.
Do you want to jump in the pool again?
Go ahead.
["É Preciso Dar Um Jeito,
Meu Amigo" continues]
People get a bit angry
because Neymar
is focused on the pitch
and can enjoy life too.
I guess
not everyone is able to do that, but
I can.
["É Preciso Dar Um Jeito,
Meu Amigo" continues]
I fucking scored!
No, you didn't.
[song continues]
[in French] He's pure joy. He loves life.
He likes enjoying his friends and family.
- [Davi] Looks like ramen noodles.
- [Carol] Help me.
Dad, it's like ramen noodles.
- Man, it's orange. My new look, orange.
- [Carol] Wait.
[Neymar Sr.] He isn't easy to manage.
He isn't easy to manage
because he's a human being.
So, I guess
we must find stability.
That's why we're creating a brand now.
This brand,
when Neymar retires, will continue.
[fan screaming]
[Neymar Sr.] He's a guy that,
in all his social media accounts,
has over 200 million people
following him.
Can I kiss you?
Me too, please!
[Neymar Sr.] We got a big business
if we know how to manage it.
We're half-way through Neymar's career.
We got seven or eight years.
One day, when his career is over,
and he's off the pitch,
his brand will be solid.
Look around and say, "Fuck"
"Look at my management.
Look at my great career."
[Neymar] You can't listen to criticism
or care about what people think.
I trust myself, and that's it.
That's how I carry on with my life.
It's what I was taught,
what I teach my son.
[reporter 1] One boy raising another.
The Santos star confirmed he'll be a dad.
[reporter 2]
The 19-year-old player posted online
that he'll become a dad this year.
[Neymar Sr.] He got a girl pregnant.
Our first crisis as a family.
We also managed it within the company
because of his image.
Accountability.
"Did you do it? Did you touch her?"
"I did."
There you go.
Life goes on. Raising a kid is easy.
It's easy. Having a family is easy.
More so with money.
Davi is the cutest thing we have.
He's the only grandkid I have.
[Nadine] His dad looks out for him
professionally
but personally too.
I look out for him spiritually,
his life as a father,
as a brother, as a son.
As I always say, "To be a good father,
you must be a good son."
"You got money.
Just work a bit more, son."
"Work harder
because your legacy is growing."
[fireworks crackling]
[crowd cheering]
[reporter] In South America,
this is it.
The long-awaited final.
[crowd chanting]
[Naymar Sr.] The Libertadores. It had
been 48 years since Santos' last victory.
Santos won one Libertadores Cup
back with Pelé.
[suspenseful music playing]
[cheering]
[air horn blowing]
What's up, everybody? Let's do it!
I'll be a champion, God willing.
Let's do it!
Totally focused now.
Much joy!
- [teammate 1] C'mon!
- [teammate 2] Let's go get it!
[fans cheering]
[reporter in Spanish]
Look at all the colors, yellow, red
white, light blue.
[crowd chanting]
[upbeat music playing]
[whistle blows]
[chanting]
[in Portuguese] It was a tough final.
I noticed they were being hard on me,
knocking me down hard.
They were being a bit mean.
I was really worried about that game.
[whistle blows]
[firecrackers bursting]
[chanting continues]
[reporter] Watch out now.
Here it is. Neymar. Neymar!
[cheering]
["É o Peixe Santos FC" playing]
Neymar is hot stuff
The biggest champion of all ♪
[Neymar in Portuguese]
You can't tell a better story than that.
In my wildest dreams,
I had never imagined
it would be like that.
[reporter in Spanish] What does Neymar
mean to football? Who is he for Santos?
Neymar, as we all know and see
is a very talented player.
Neymar made it to the national team.
Luckily, he'll bring in the same pace
and impact he had with Santos.
[upbeat music playing]
[crowd cheering]
[fans] Brazil!
Brazil!
[reporter in Portuguese] The Brazilian
national team became Neymar Football Club.
Forget everyone else.
After Pelé,
the number 10 jersey became a brand.
It comes with responsibilities,
expectations and demands.
[Wagner] I believe Neymar is much better.
He is much better than Pelé.
Pelé was fantastic, wonderful.
But, if Pelé were playing today,
he'd have a hard time.
If Neymar played back in Pelé's day,
oh my goodness!
He'd score 12 goals each game.
It was much easier.
[reporter in Spanish]
Will Neymar be better than you?
He'd have to score more than 1,283 goals.
[reporter] The more they try to knock you
down, the more inspired you get.
They come at you, but you keep dribbling.
You want to get nutmegs
and rainbows, right?
The more opponents foul us,
the more Brazil wants to play.
Wearing the national jersey
makes us proud.
Being the number 10 on the national team,
scoring goals, making history.
[fans chanting] Brazil! Brazil! Brazil!
Brazil! Brazil! Brazil!
[Betinho] In Brazil, we put together
our national team.
Good.
Out there in Europe,
we're the best in the world.
Good players reach a limit.
They're only known in their country.
Stars are known in their continent.
A genius is world-renowned. He's a genius.

[Neymar] My dream was to play for Santos
and the National Team.
It was my childhood dream.
Later, you understand football
and open up your mind, have new dreams.
[Neymar Sr.] Neymar has become
one of the biggest athletes in Brazil.
It has brought us much delight.
[Wagner] He soon got offers
from Bayern Munich, Manchester,
Real Madrid, again, and Barcelona.
In Brazil, no club can afford
what they pay in Europe.
Our currency is too weak.
[reporter in Spanish]
Would you like to play alongside Messi?
[Neymar in Portuguese]
It'd be nice if he came to Santos.
[laughing]
The door is open. [laughing]
Neymar had a club in mind
before moving to Europe.
[woman speaking indistinctly]
- No.
- It's okay.
- Let me
- It's okay, let go.
- Do it right.
- This way.
Turn it around, not on the side.
Like a good boy.
- No, this way
- Please.
- No.
- Please.
Go, c'mon! We've got to go!
- Please.
- Sit down now.
- It's me
- [chuckling] No, don't touch me.
Just sit down.
- Please.
- Sit down!
- I'm asking.
- Sit.
- [Neymar Sr.] I'll ask again.
- Just sit down.
I don't like it.
Please, fix your hat.
[reporter in Spanish] This Sunday,
Neymar says goodbye to Brazil
after nine years at Santos.
Next stop, Barcelona Football Club,
where he'll play for five seasons.
At 21, he's packing to cross the ocean
and share a locker
with Argentine Lionel Messi.
[in Portuguese]
It was yet another big step, you know?
He was already at a big club.
After Barcelona, where could he go?
FC BARCELONA
MORE THAN A CLUB
[crowd cheering]
[Pelé in English]
Of course, to play in Europe
is a little different
than to play in South America
because, uh, the football in Europe
is a little more tough.
[speaking indistinctly]
[in Portuguese] Where is everybody?
[Neymar] No one's here today.
There's no one here.
They'll come tomorrow.
[crowd cheering]
Neymar, Neymar, Neymar, Neymar, Neymar ♪
[cheering, whistling]
[reporter in Spanish] Do you think
you and Neymar will get along?
[crowd] Neymar, Neymar, Neymar, Neymar ♪
[Messi] I hope we get on the pitch
and things will work well.
[reporter 1] How will Messi
and Neymar work together?
How will the best in the world
play together for the number one spot?
[reporter 2] Let's wait and see.
I have my doubts about it.
Their football is very different.
[announcer] The one who's just arrived,
Neymar!
