HE came, he saw, and oh how he conquered the Blue Samurai with such consummate ease.
Brazilian striker Neymar samba-ed his way into a packed National Stadium at the Singapore Sports Hub on Tuesday and promptly sliced an under-strength Japan to shreds by scoring all four goals in a 4-0 victory.
The lanky 22-year-old, captain of his country, played the full 90 minutes of this friendly football match in front of a raucous 51,577-strong crowd, the first sell-out since the stadium opened in June.
