Neymar has expressed his disappointment at Brazil’s World Cup ouster after losing their quarter final clash to Croatia on Penalties.
The PSG star in an Instagram post said ‘he is psychologically destroyed’ even as he expressed his pride in his team, saying they deserve to win the tournament.
“I’m psychologically destroyed’, Neymar began. ‘This was certainly the defeat that hurt me the most, which made me paralyzed for 10 minutes and right after I fell into non-stop crying.
‘It’s gonna hurt for a loooong time, unfortunately. We fought until the end. That’s what I’m proud of my team-mates because there was no lack of commitment and dedication.
‘This group deserved it, we deserved it, BRAZIL deserved it… But this was not the will of GOD! It was worth every sacrifice to feel the affection of each one from inside the field.”
Neymar, despite Brazil’s loss equalled great Pele’s goal record of 77 goals in 124 caps.
