Brazil superstar Neymar showed off his heavily bandaged foot after he made a goal-scoring return for Brazil against Croatia at Anfield.
Despite admitting afterwards he is 'only 80 per cent fit', Neymar made an impact on the game after being brought on as a substitute in Liverpool.
And taking to Instagram after the win, Neymar showed fans the wrapping on his injured foot and also his religious shinpad which reads 'God is faithful'.

Neymar told reporters that he only feels '80 per cent' fit despite the impressive return
He opened the scoring in the second half beating three defenders and finding the top corner.
Attached to the image of his heavily taped right foot, Neymar wrote: : Good evening and good to fight, determined to embrace life with passion, lose with class and overcome with daring. The world belongs to those who dare.'
It was Neymar's first game in three months after he injured his metatarsal playing for Paris Saint-Germain against Marseille in Ligue 1 in February.
He came on as a substitute at Anfield to much anticipation as one of Tite's half-time substitutes and 98 days after he sustained the injury in France, it was an encouraging cameo.
'It's been three months since the injury,' Neymar told reporters following the game.
Neymar came on at half-time to much anticipation but scored and changed the game for Brazil.
'To be back to do what I love the most, which is to play football, and even score a goal... I'm very happy.
'But I still have some fear, a certain fear, but little by little, with each training session, I'm letting myself go.
'Let's see what the week's training will be like. Little by little I'm getting better. I'm happy for today.
'I still feel a little uncomfortable, but it's normal because I've stayed a long time without stepping on the pitch I'm 80 per cent.'
