Neymar is in shock: a bizarre substitution, a meme related to the substitution, and a slim chance of making it to the World Cup.
Where’s my substitution?! I’ve been waiting for this for already half an hour!
The moment with Neymar has become a meme. He was substituted with a substitution order. While the Brazilian was still recovering from his injuries, the referee decided to substitute him. The referee marked the forward as available for substitution.
Neymar, who is still fighting to make it to the World Cup, didn’t expect such a substitution. He showed the paper with the substitution order to the camera. Of course, his surname wasn’t mentioned on that paper. But it was already too late to change everything back.
If he doesn’t make it to the World Cup, he can go back to his original situation.
