Neymar’s goals, from free-kicks to solo runs

SportLocation Football Desk · 10 Sept 2026

A ranked Neymar montage leans on variety: one free-kick, one breakaway and one Brazil strike after another.

Neymar’s top-goals reel is built on contrast. One moment is a set-piece, the next is a burst of open-field running, and then comes the sort of finish that turns a crowded box into a highlight.

The strongest clips are the ones that show different ways of beating a defence. The PSG free-kick is all control and placement. The Brazil sequence is about pace and timing. The Santos move has the feel of a player carrying the attack almost on his own.

That mix is what makes the montage work. It is not just a string of finishes; it is a reminder that Neymar’s threat has always come from more than one route to goal.

The final image in the reel leaves the same point hanging in the air: when he has space, Neymar can make the pitch look very small indeed.
