Santos visited Fluminense for the third round match of the Brazilian Serie A. The game took place on the night of Monday, April 14.

The first half was dominated by Fluminense, who took more shots both towards and on target. However, the hosts were unable to open the score. Santos created almost no danger near the opponent's goal, so the 0-0 draw at halftime seemed logical.

At the start of the second half, Neymar took to the field. The Brazilian had missed the previous four matches due to injury but is now ready to play again.

The second half was also a balanced battle, but the ending was unexpected — in the 90+7 minute, the hosts scored the winning goal. Santos did not have time to respond and lost 0-1.

In a few days, Neymar's team will play against Atletico Mineiro. Currently, Santos is in the relegation zone of Serie A, having only one point after three rounds.
