As Neymar gets set to hit the pitch for his new club FC Barcelona against his former Santos squad, he will do so in some of the most innovative soccer gear Nike has ever produced.

On his feet, Neymar will wear the same Hypervenom Phantom cleats he helped develop and launch earlier this year. The Hypervenom features Nike’s ACC (All Conditions Control) technology designed to allow players to play at full potential regardless of weather. Neymar will also rock the newly designed FC Barcelona home kits that pay homage to the flag of Catalunya—he’ll don No. 11.

As he looks to put the ball in the back of the net early and often, Neymar, along with the rest of the players, will play with the Nike Intyce soccer ball. The ball features RaDaR (Rapid Decision and Response) technology for enhanced visibility, as well as a five-layer construction for optimized touch and control.

Check out Neymar and all the new Nike gear in tonight’s game between Barcelona and Santos.
