Neymar Calls Son Heung-Min One Of The "Greats In Football History" After They Swap Shirts
Neymar hailed Son Heung-min as one of the best players in "football history" after swapping shirts with the South Korea captain on Thursday.
Brazil thrashed South Korea 5-1 in a friendly in Seoul as Neymar scored two penalties to move to within four goals of Pele's national scoring record.
PSG icon Neymar and Tottenham star Son shared a hug at full time, before exchanging jerseys.
A photo of the pair was later posted to Instagram by Neymar's verified news account with the caption: "Two greats in football history!"
Neymar then shared the post with his 175 million followers via the Stories section of his personal account.
While Neymar needs just five more international goals to dethrone Pele as Brazil's all-time leading scorer, Son has a lot more work to do.
Thursday's friendly was Son's 99th senior appearance for his country.
He has so far scored 31 goals, which places him sixth on the list of South Korea's top scorers.
Son needs another 28 to break the record currently held by Cha Bum-kun, who scored 58 times between 1972 and 1986.
It is expected that Son will win his 100th cap for South Korea on Monday when Chile visit the Daejeon World Cup Stadium.
