Neymar's professional career has been defined by his sizzle and dazzle play - defenders only have two choices when facing him: commit a penalty or let him score. In one word, he is breathtaking.

Westbrook and Neymar set out to play with a mindset to destroy their opponents in a brash and at times disrespectful manner.

A common denomination for both players' playstyle would be "flair with a purpose".
