Neymar: “I Couldn’t Look At A Football” After The World Cup Defeat by Hiptvng: 5:04pm On Jul 22, 2018
Brazil player Neymar admits that after his nation’s quarter-final defeat to Belgium at the World Cup he could not look at a ball and didn’t want to see any of the remaining matches.

“I wouldn’t go so far as to say I didn’t want to play once more but, I did not want to see a ball, or to see any more football players,” 26-year-old Neymar informed AFP in an interview on Saturday.

The Paris Saint Germain star was talking at his Neymar Praia Grande institute where the Red Bull Neymar Jr 5’s (five-a-side-soccer) tournament was being played.

Dressed in a sleeveless t-shirt, together with his six-year-old son Davi Lucca sat upon his knee, the striker was however in a relaxed mood as he explained his post-World Cup blues.

“I was in mourning, I was really sad about it, but disappointment passes, I’ve my son, my family, my pals and they do not wish to see me moping around. I’ve got more reason to be happy than sad,” said Neymar, reflecting on his team‘s 2-1 quarter-final defeat to Belgium.

Asked about reports in Spain linking him with a transfer to Madrid the forward mentioned: “that is all speculation from the press.”

“The guys who provide you with these stories seem to know more about my life than I do. I will not reply to this type of question because nothing happened,” he scoffed.
