Brazil is a country with a majoritarian christian population, so expressions like that are pretty common here.
Like it or not, religion is still part of the Brazilian culture in many ways, even our main holidays are basically religious holidays, like October, 12th (Our Lady Patroness´day), Carnaval/Ash Wednesday, Christmas etc.
Religous figures are present in many popular folk parties here, like June Parties (similar to Solstice Festivals in Europe/NA), Processions Festivals etc. etc.
It´s just lame and dumb to criticize a simple expression like Neymar´s bandanna. If that´s the case, then they should have banned images of the Statue of Christ the Redemeer in OG merchandising items and Tv streamings
