Brazil’s departure from the World Cup, what Neymar said

There is no team that can be called the favorite in the Qatar World Cup, its sixteenth place was fulfilled in the quarter-final match between Brazil and Croatia. The team that has won the World Cup most times in history was in the race to become the champion in this season as well. But who knew, the dream of Neymar Jr. will stop at the quarter finals. The Latin American nation crashed out of the World Cup on Friday night against Croatia in Tribeca.

From the start of the match, Brazil and Croatia played competitive football. The first quarter-final was filled with massive attacks and counter-attacks by the two teams. But if the god of fortune does not look up, then no more goals are scored. That happened in this match as well. Both teams had multiple scoring opportunities but failed to find the back of the net. However, Neymar gave Brazil the lead by showing great skill in extra time.

However, Tita’s disciples could not keep that lead for long. The Croats repaid the goal before the referee blew the final whistle. With the game eventually tied 1 – 1 at the end of regulation time, the match was played at Tribeca. And that’s why the Brazilians became tigers in front of the Croats. The result was a 4 – 2 loss. Of course, there are many discussions and criticisms about this Tribeca shoot.

Why the relatively young Rodrigo was sent to shoot the first Tribeca on a big stage like the World Cup is now a matter of discussion. Why did Tite assign the inexperienced Rodrigo to an experienced player like Thiago Silva? The question was raised in the press conference after the match. Even the biggest star of the team Neymar did not shoot. However, as the reason for this, Tite told the press conference, Neymar was kept to shoot the fifth shot under pressure.

Neymar’s words of uncertainty were also heard after the failure of the Hexa mission. He does not know whether he will play for Brazil in the future. “I don’t know if I will play for my country after this World Cup. But I don’t want to end here, I have a lot more to give in football. Now I have to think about the whole thing. Thanks to the fans, for motivating us,” said Brazilian Number ten. We came to the World Cup in Qatar with the dream of winning the World Cup but we did not achieve our goal.”

Meanwhile, as his team could not win the World Cup, Tite has already stepped down from the responsibility of the Brazil team. But that matter is not official yet. Influential media such as Brazil’s Globo and England’s Daily Mail claim that Tite decided to resign within a couple of hours after the match ended. It is being said that this coach failed despite all the logistics to win the world.
