Barcelona star man Neymar continued to grace the football field, taking part in his third charity match in a week, despite being on a winter break from La Liga.

This particular charity match was the 13th annual “Game of Stars” which was organised by Brazil legend Zico and Flamengo, and was held at the iconic Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro.

This time around, the game was dedicated to the Chapecoense players who tragically died in a plane crash in Colombia a few weeks ago.

The match starred the likes of Rafinha and Emerson Sheik apart from the Barcelona superstar, and the light hearted fixture ended with a scoreline of 8-4 as the “Red Stars” beat the “White Stars”.

The Brazil international, being the star attraction of the match, stood out as expected as he scored two goals, assisted one beautifully and displayed a bagful of tricks for the 58,000-strong crowd to enjoy.

Have a look at some of his best moments:
