Do you guys remember all these online memes that became popular between 2014-2019, where Messi is telling his teammates- specifically Higuain - that when he dies, he wants his teammates to bury him, so they can let him down one last time.
While can’t Brazil not winning 2018/2022 WC and 2021 CA is the result of his teammates, but in 2022, this meme truly applies to Neymar because they truly did. Whether in penalties or the way they let Croatia come back. That is not to say he was perfect but he at least scored a goal that put them within a hair of the SF.
But say what you will about Neymar and how he can be so immature at times, but he has been very classy and didn’t throw any of his teammates under the bus. He came to their full defence. I don’t know if this is a calculated move on his part, so they will go all the way for him at the next WC. Or simply Neymar being a good person? I believe it is the latter, he has been too distraught and grief-stricken to think that strategically and far ahead. But regardless, the fact that he came to their defence will hopefully make them do their best to win it for him next time.
