The French PSG striker was very saddened by Brazil’s loss to the Croatian team in the 2022 World Cup.
PSG and Brazil striker Neymar admitted that he had to endure his national team’s exit from the World Cup in Qatar.
Recall that the Brazilian team stopped the fight for the trophy in the quarterfinals, losing to the Croatian team.
Neymar said that after that defeat, he cried for several days and even thought about ending his career with the national team.
“I can’t tell what thoughts flashed through my head. Right now, this is the most painful defeat in my career. I cried for five days in a row. I was so hurt that my dream was destroyed.
This is the happiest moment of my life. It’s like a funeral: someone is crying on one side of you, someone is crying on the other side. It was a very painful feeling and I don’t want to experience it again.
Honestly, after the World Cup I didn’t want to continue playing for the national team, but then I changed my mind because I was very hungry. After the World Cup, I don’t want to experience the pain of defeat again, to see how my family suffers – it’s a heavy burden for me. But they have to endure it again,” ESPN quoted the Brazilian as saying.
It will be remembered that Neymar previously received a large fine for environmental violations in Brazil.
