RB Leipzig won a test match against FC Santos and recovered superstar Neymar 3:1 (1:0) at the end of their promotional tour to Brazil. The goals against the former Pelé club were scored by Xavi Simons (15th, 64th minute) and Lois Openda (59th). In front of 7604 spectators, Hyan (70th) scored the consolation goal for the hosts, for whom Neymar remained in the dressing room at half-time as agreed.
Löw's last game as RB coach
"It was an incredible experience to be on the touchline here in Brazil. I think it's a good feeling for everyone involved that we were able to say goodbye with a win," said RB coach Zsolt Löw after his last outing as RB coach. "It was a nice finish for all of us. I'm not completely gone, but will return to Leipzig at some point."
Löw had stepped in as interim coach for the suspended Marco Rose until the end of the season in March and will now work alongside Jürgen Klopp again in the global strategy team of the Red Bull Group's soccer division.
