Brazil’s superstar Neymar celebrated his comeback on Monday evening. After the 4-1 win over South Korea, the attacker became emotional.
Neymar has been sidelined in the last two group games against Switzerland and Cameroon after suffering an ankle injury in the World Cup opener against Serbia. The PSG star reported fit again in time for the knockout stage – Neymar also celebrated a personally successful comeback with a goal and an assist.
How great Neymar’s fears were of missing the rest of the tournament after the injury can at least be guessed at from his emotions after South Korea. “I can only say thank you to everyone for their support. It wasn’t easy for me because a lot was happening in my head, doubts, fears,” the 30-year-old admitted (via dpa) to.
Neymar stressed that he had the support of “all my friends and family”. Many more messages have reached him about this. “It was good news that came from all over the world, positive energy, that was very good for me,” said the PSG star. “Thank you to all Brazilians.”
After his comeback and reaching the Vertelfinals, Neymar has big plans for the Selecao: “Everything will be fine. And I’m sure we’ll be in the final in the end.”
