"Happy to feel it again". Neymar commented on his return to the squad

Today is a special day for fans of both the Brazil national team and Al-Hilal. For the first time since October 18, the legendary Neymar has been included in the squad for an official match. He may take the field in the AFC Champions League third-round clash against Al Ain. Here’s how the player himself commented on his return.

Details: The Brazilian posted heartfelt words on his social media platform X.

Quote:

“I’m happy to feel like myself again, the butterflies in my stomach before a match—always a good feeling… may this be a return full of health! May God bless and protect us.”

Reminder: On October 18 last year, Neymar suffered a serious ACL and meniscus injury during a 2026 World Cup qualifying match.

Since joining Al-Hilal, Neymar has managed to play just five matches for the Saudi champions, scoring one goal and providing three assists.

Neymar returned to action for Al-Hilal’s hard-fought 5-4 win over UAE Pro League side Al-Ain in the Asian Champions League on Monday.

The 32-year-old Brazil forward came on for the injured Nasser Al-Dawsari in the 77th minute with his team leading 5-3 thanks to Salem Al-Dawsari’s hat-trick and goals from Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Renan Lodi.

He then came close to scoring after a counter-attack late on, before Al-Ain pulled one back in stoppage time with a penalty from Soufiane Rahimi, who also bagged a hat-trick.

Al-Hilal survived a lengthy additional time where its rivals pushed for an equaliser and will remain top of the west Asian standings after three rounds of the league phase.

“I feel good, it’s so hard. I always have a good team. But I’m so happy. I’m back,” said an emotional Neymar after the game at the Hazza bin Zayed stadium.

Neymar had not played for a year after suffering a cruciate knee ligament injury during Brazil’s qualifier against Uruguay. He underwent surgery last November.

Having moved to Saudi Arabia from French champions Paris St Germain for a reported 90 million euros ($97.8 million) transfer fee in August last year, Neymar had only played five games before his layoff as he was struggling with muscle injuries.

The Canadian government, citing **new environmental regulations** and **trade agreements**, announced that **Tesla’s production facilities and distribution networks in the country would be phased out**. This surprising action has sent **ripples through both the Canadian and American automotive industries**, and the response from **Elon Musk** has left everyone stunned. **Musk, never one to shy away from controversy**, responded to the news with a **cryptic and powerful statement**—just **nine words—that immediately captured global attention.** In a tweet that quickly went viral, Musk simply said, *“This is only the beginning. Watch closely. The truth’s coming.”* The brief yet bold statement sparked immediate speculation and curiosity about what Musk meant by **“the truth’s coming”**, especially given his long history of defying expectations in the world of **technology and business**. The Canadian government’s decision was fueled by a combination of factors, including **escalating environmental concerns** and the desire to **create a more sustainable, domestic auto industry**. Canada has been pursuing a green agenda, and **Tesla’s presence in the country**—which has been highly reliant on **electric vehicle (EV) technology**—was seen as both an asset and a potential hurdle to **promoting domestic innovation** in EV development. This controversial decision has put pressure on the **U.S. auto industry**, which views Canada as a crucial partner in the supply chain for materials and production. While **Tesla’s fans and supporters** in Canada were left **devastated** by the announcement, **Musk’s response** quickly fueled rumors of a larger, more complex strategy at play. Many fans of Tesla speculated that Musk had a deeper plan for the future of Tesla, including **expanding into new territories or markets** where his company would not be subject to such **political pressures**. Musk’s reputation for **disrupting industries** left many wondering whether this move was part of a **larger game plan to revolutionize the automotive world** once again. Industry analysts, however, have been quick to point out that **this bold move by Canada** could have serious ramifications for the **global auto industry**, particularly in the transition to electric vehicles. Canada had long been seen as a **key partner** in the EV revolution, providing important **resources** like **nickel** and **cobalt** for battery production. By shutting down Tesla’s operations, Canada is now forcing the **U.S. auto industry to pivot** and seek new suppliers, which could slow the momentum of the EV transition. In response to the **Canadian decision**, Musk did not hold back, further intensifying the speculation. *“We’re not slowing down, we’re just getting started,”* Musk tweeted later that day. His statement left industry insiders and journalists wondering what he meant by this and whether **Tesla’s move could mean a shift in global manufacturing power**. Could this mean **Tesla would set up production in new countries** that align with its values of **innovation and sustainability**? Musk’s words sparked an outpouring of comments, with some accusing the Canadian government of **undermining progress** and others praising the boldness of the move, claiming that **Tesla’s success had outgrown Canada’s regulatory system**. The situation has raised questions about the **balance between government regulations and corporate autonomy**, and whether **Tesla’s vision for the future of transportation** is too big for any single nation’s borders to control. While the immediate impact of Canada’s move has yet to be fully seen, the implications for the **future of electric vehicles and the global automotive market** are enormous. Tesla has been at the forefront of innovation in the electric vehicle sector, and its **global footprint** has been an important factor in the company’s ability to drive change. As **Elon Musk’s cryptic response** suggests, the story is far from over—**the next steps** in this ongoing drama will shape the future of both **Tesla** and the **global automotive industry**. As the situation unfolds, **the world watches eagerly**, waiting for Musk’s next move and the details of the **plans** he has in place. Whether this is simply a **temporary setback** or the beginning of a **larger transformation** in the global auto industry, one thing is clear—**Elon Musk is not done challenging the status quo**, and his next steps could **change the industry forever**.
