Atlético Mineiro's fans (mostly elderly) taunt Neymar on social media, recording videos saying "my knees are better than Neymar's" before Copa Sudamericana quarterfinal second leg.

Wait 5 sec.

To give some context, Neymar once again provoked and insulted opposing fans, this time Atlético Mineiro supporters, after the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana quarterfinals. Santos won that game 2–0 at home, but once again the No. 10 was not fit for the second leg, played yesterday. Atlético Mineiro won 4–2 and advanced on penalties, leaving Santos with no chance of winning a title this season. Before the game, many Atlético Mineiro fans — most of them elderly women, but also people with disabilities and obesity — recorded videos introducing themselves by name and age and finishing with the sentence “e o meu joelho é melhor que o do Neymar” (“and my knee is better than Neymar’s”), creating a viral trend on social media.   submitted by   /u/brazilian_liliger [link]   [comments]
