巴甲第18轮，内马尔梅开二度，帮助桑托斯3-1战胜尤文图德。
赛后，内马尔表示在主场感觉良好，并称帕尔梅拉斯主场安联球场的人造草皮是“社会草坪”。
Neymar said: "It is impossible for me to play at the Allianz Park Stadium (Palmeiras home court). Playing on an artificial turf will make any player feel uncomfortable and has nothing to do with injury. The Morubi Stadium is very good and I feel better. I feel great on this field."
Neymar also talked about the team's goal in the Brazil League and not just relegation: "From the beginning of the league, we have always been thinking about higher goals. Because of our mistakes, we have tasted bitter fruit. Now we are very happy to be out of the relegation zone (for the time being) and the next thing to consider is improvement. I am getting better and keep improving. Everyone knows my abilities, I don't need to prove anything to anyone. I want to be better every day to help my teammates and Santos."
In the first half of the year, Neymar was plagued by injuries and failed to perform at his best.现在，他认为状态不稳的问题已成为过去。
Neymar said: "Every time I go on the court, I feel very comfortable. I need time. I need playing time. It's normal. Someone told me after the operation that the recovery process can be unpleasant, difficult and frustrating. I've experienced pain, but it's over."
