International team mate of Moura and Santos star, Neymar da Silva Santos Junior is perhaps the biggest draw of the Olympics football. Brazil legend and arguably the greatest footballer ever, Pele, has likened the 20 year old to the likes of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. A porcupine styled hairdo along with talent in abundance, makes Neymar the next big thing in world of football. Having made his international debut at the age of 18, Neymar has already scored nine times for the Samba nation at an average of 0.5 goals per match.
