Neymar is not the only footballer who could not resist the spirit of Jerusalema when it hit him. In 2020, Manchester United soccer player, Cristiano Ronaldo, also jammed to the track.
The success of Jerusalema has been one of the biggest achievements by South African musicians as the song has been nominated and won several awards internationally since its release in November 2019.
The track went viral in 2020 during lockdown and sparked the #JerusalemaDanceChallenge after a remix featuring Grammy award-winning musician Burna Boy was released.
Last month, Master KG shared that Jerusalema scored gold status in the United States and the achievement is another one for the books. In addition, this month, the song finally hit the half-a-billion mark on YouTube as it now sits on 500 million views.
