"Playing against Van Dijk is tough because as a centre-back, he's so strong and intelligent," Neymar told DAZN Canada.

“He knows when it's the right time to close you down and when to go in for a tackle. That makes it harder. He's intelligent. It's harder to play against intelligent centre-backs. They don't make mistakes."

Neymar described the England international as "fast, strong and intelligent".
