Neymar did not let the message sent by Chris MC, rapper and Atlético-MG fan, go unanswered. After Santos' elimination at Arena MRV on Wednesday (16), the singer shared on his Instagram profile a private conversation exchanged with the player.
Elimination Context
Santos was eliminated by Atlético-MG in the Copa do Brasil match. In the first leg, played at Vila Belmiro, Neymar had provoked the Atlético fans, which caused outrage among players and fans of the Minas Gerais club.
Attacker's Response
Instead of ignoring, the number 10 chose to respond directly to the rapper. The exchange of messages, now public, reignited the debate about the athlete's attitudes on and off the field.
- Initial Provocation: Neymar taunted Atlético-MG fans during the first game.
- Subsequent Reaction: Chris MC posted the private dialogue after Galo's qualification.
- Impact: The episode placed the Santos player at the center of attention on social media.
