NEYMAR JR on street football

🇧🇷 NEYMAR JR: "I trained as a footballer on the street. I always played on the street before arriving at Santos and even after, when I was already a professional. It helped me a lot in my way of playing; it made me 'skilled' and free, and this can help any child. I played three hours a day on the street, and that helped me develop specific skills for football and enhance my talent. When I arrived to train at Santos' youth academy, I saw the field full of stations, and all I wanted was to play. I remember my coach punished me for not doing what he wanted. I only wanted to play to dribble, to face opponents, to use my intelligence. Any child who plays a lot will become an expert in the game; I recommend it. It helped me be brave and bold; it made me who I am."
