Imo its the other way around, Hazard is better in tight spaces, Neymar uses his acceleration and trickery more
Neymar is far better in tight space. The dribbling of Neymar is more about technique, Hazard dribbling is more about balance, agility and acceleration.
you rarely see hazard dribbling in tight space, you never see Hazard dribbling in congested area like Messi or Neymar. Hazard use his dribbling where he find space.
I have never seen thinks like this from Hazard, when he has no space, most of the time he is limited

I think Hazard is just more consistent in his dribbling, because he almost never try difficult things like Neymar.
Neymar is even a better dribbler from static position.

5:05 you never see Hazard doing things like this. He give his best when he can accelerate.
Some people have talked about how Hazard creates many scoring opportunities, you have to see how are those chance, beacuse even Sterling create a lot of chances based on those stats, but his vision is average. I think Hazard create chances like a typical winger and for me Neymar is the better creator, he create the better chances because he got a better vision. This is the impression when i have seen both, never been impressed by the vision of Hazard, unlike that of Neymar. Especially from this point of view I have not seen anything special from Hazard in this world cup. In the match France vs Belgium, Mbappe put his temmates 3 times in front of goal, Hazard created 0 clear chances.
Hazard fans like to talk a lot about stats, but those are the stats who really matter and Hazard is not even close to Neymar in those stats.
