Neymar Confronts Santos Fan After Late Goal Ruled Out During Santos vs Internacional

STATE OF SÃO PAULO, BRAZIL, JUL 23 – Santos FC sits 17th with just 14 points from 15 matches as Neymar faces fan backlash after a 2-1 loss to Internacional, deepening the club's relegation crisis.

  • On July 16, 2025, Santos lost 2-1 to Internacional at Urbano Caldeira Stadium.

  • Santos are 17th in the 20-team league where the bottom four are relegated to Serie B, a fate they first suffered in December 2023.
