Asked about his fitness by a reporter, Neymar said: "This again? I’ve said it 300 times."

Reacting to Santos' latest performance: "Everything was missing, that's why the score was 3-0. We didn't even play half the game we did against Flamengo in marking.

"In the game against Flamengo, they were superior in possession, and today Mirassol was the same; they were superior in every aspect."
