Neymar offers support to Luis Suarez after Copa America penalty miss

Neymar sent a message of support to Luis Suarez after he missed a penalty in Uruguay’s shootout defeat to Peru at the Copa America on Saturday.

After a goalless draw La Celeste were knocked out 5-4 on penalties, and it is Peru who go on to play Chile for a place in the final.

Suarez started off the shootout but produced a pretty poor kick that was saved by goalkeeper Pedro Gallese, and he then left the pitch in tears after the defeat.

Neymar took to social media to send a message to his former team-mate, writing the following next to a video of Suarez in tears.
