Neymar’s stunning sister Rafaella cheers on Brazil against Serbia in World Cup 2022 clash

NEYMAR's stunning sister Rafaella Santos has shown her colours as she cheers on Brazil and her brother at the World Cup.

The Samba Boys had to wait a while to get their tournament up and running in Qatar.

But they finally got to face Serbia in their opening group game tonight, four days after hosts Qatar kicked off proceedings.

Rafaella took to Instagram to show off her support for her country, who are targeting their first World Cup win since 2002.

The Brazilian beauty snapped herself pouting at the camera as she prepared for the game against Serbia.

Around her two men can be seen donning the Brazilian shirts and flag and colours.

In another picture, the model sits on the edge of the sofa with her face barely visible to the camera in a black and white snap.

What can be seen is the back of the shirt, which bears her name and the number 10, the same as what Neymar wears for his country.

She adds the caption: "Meu número preferido!" which translates as "My favorite number!"

Rafaella has always supported Neymar throughout his career and the pair appear to share a special sibling bond.

HOW TO GET FREE BETS ON THE WORLD CUP

The relationship appeared so strong that the PSG star appeared to always be unavailable to play for his club around the same time as Rafaella's birthday.

But footie fans noticed that the 'curse' was finally broken this year.

There was almost no chance of Neymar missing the game against Serbia as he looks to lead his country to World Cup glory.

Brazil were beaten by Belgium at their last attempt to land the Jules Rimet trophy in 2018.

And in their home tournament four years earlier, Brazil were famously humbled and humiliated by Germany in the semi-finals.

If they are to make it that far this time round, they will have to navigate their way out of a group containing Serbia, Switzerland and Cameroon.
