NEYMAR stunned his Brazil team-mates with an outrageous show of skill days before the World Cup.
The Brazil players were put through their paces as they prepare for Qatar.

One test involved dropping a ball from a massive height of 35 metres – above even the stadium roof.
And in typical Neymar fashion he led by example by bringing the ball under immediate control with a ridiculously good first touch.
With his second touch he used his knee to flick the ball into his hands – cue pandemonium from his team-mates.
They immediately began cheering and surrounding their captain gleefully.
Meanwhile the Paris Saint-Germain star looked a little nonplussed – it was just another day for the Brazil hero.
But fans on social media let Neymar know how crazy the skill was by lavishing praise on the 30-year-old.
One supporter wrote: “That is madness.”
Another added: “Baller 🔥.”
And a third said: “Most underrated player of all time.”
Another commented: “Second best player in the world right now behind [Federico] Valverde. World cup next.”
There is a lot of excitement about Brazil and Neymar ahead of the World Cup with fans in India erecting a 40ft cardboard cutout of the superstar ahead of the tournament.
Brazil are also the bookies’ favourites to win the World Cup for a sixth time, having last lifted the trophy in 2002.
