That's Portuguese for "yes," because Neymar and the Brazilian men's soccer team just dominated "The Running Man Challenge" -- albeit months after the meme's moment in the digital sun. (Hey, it takes a bit for American sports memes to work their way down South, OK?)
Fresh off their rejuvenating Olympics triumph on home soil, Neymar and a handful of teammates recorded "Running Man Challenge" offering in the team locker room this weekend.
