Neymar made a blistering start to his
World Cup on Thursday night with a double against Croatia - but UK
broadcaster ITV have been forced to apologise after their online service
stopped as the 22-year-old scored his second goal from the penalty
spot.
Brazil's star -
who has long been hailed as the 'next Pele' - cancelled out Marcelo's
own goal in the first half before converting a contentious penalty when
Fred went down easily in the box.
But
some ITV viewers were left scrambling to find footage of the goal.
Thankfully for them, Brazil legend Kaka was on hand with an Instagram
video of the finish from the stadium in Sao Paulo.
Almost perfect: After scoring a brace for Brazil
in their World Cup opener, Neymar said the one thing missing from his
day was...

Robin Van Persie went from being 'star man' under Ferguson to 'sideshow' under Moyes, says Ferdinand
Rio
Ferdinand thinks Robin van Persie went from being adored under Sir Alex
Ferguson to unloved by David Moyes at Manchester United.
Ferdinand,
an ex-United defender, was asked about Van Persie's below par season at
Old Trafford, and admitted the new boss did little to invigorate the
striker in the same way as his predecessor.
'When
Sir Alex Ferguson left, he went from being the star man, our go-to guy,
the top scorer, to being almost like a sideshow,' said Ferdinand.

Cristiano Ronaldo cuts training short and leaves with ice pack on knee as he races to be fit ahead of opening world cup game
Cristiano
Ronaldo has caused concern in the Portugal camp ahead of their crucial
World Cup opener against Germany after leaving training early with an
ice pack attached to his left knee.
The
Real Madrid maestro is relied upon in the Portugal team, but the

bothered him at Real Madrid has made its way to Brazil.
Ronaldo managed less than 20 minutes with the rest of his team-mates before being forced to leave.

Pitbull, Jennifer Lopez and Claudia Leitte all had pointless opening ceremony pageantry in Sao Paulo at world cup opening ceremony
Is there anything more pointless than a World Cup opening ceremony?
Joining the league against the march of the unstoppable Sepp Blatter
perhaps? Trying to find where the money’s gone again? Putting the
toothpaste back in the tube?
The
Olympic flame lighting gala is part of the wonder of the event.
Fortunes are spent, the biggest names are hired. Histories unfold and
the Arctic Monkeys rock out. By contrast, there will be 18th birthday
parties in Essex this weekend that have more wit and imagination than
this.
Trio: Pitbull, Jennifer Lopez and Claudia Leitte perform during the opening ceremony of the 2014 World Cup in Arena de Sao Paulo

the blow of seeing Fabregas in a Chelsea shirt has been softened by a
hefty £5.6million windfall as part of the Spaniard's move to Stamford
Bridge.
