Neymar celebrates Real Madrid star after Champions League triumph

Despite playing for their rivals Barcelona, Neymar acknowledged Real Madrid's Champions League success by cheering on two of his compatriots who contributed to Los Blancos’s triumph, Vinicius and Rodrygo. 

Neymar is the captain of the Brazil national team when fit and a mentor to the emerging stars of this generation of Brazilian stars. Vinicius and Rodrygo have both previously admitted to looking up to him, and following their grand achievement, Neymar celebrated them.

Real Madrid beat Dortmund 2-0 to lift their 15th Champions League title, thanks to goals from Dani Carvajal and Vinicius Jr. 

Following the victory, Neymar took to his Instagram to celebrate two of his compatriots in Real Madrid's ranks, the two forwards who started on the night, Vinicius and Rodrygo. 

The Al-Hilal forwards shared a picture of Vinicius carrying Rodrygo and captioned it, “The best 2 in the world!!!”

Injury has sidelined Neymar from action this season; hence, he will be unable to join the pair to help Brazil win their 10th Copa America title. 

Meanwhile, Rodrygo has come out to dispel rumours linking him away from Real Madrid to join Premier League champions Manchester City.
