Superstar forward Neymar has suggested he may never play for Brazil again after their heartbreaking loss to Croatia on penalties in Friday’s FIFA World Cup quarterfinal match.
“Honestly, I do not know. I think talking now is bad because of the heat of the moment. Maybe I’m not thinking straight,” a visibly emotional Neymar remarked shortly after the defeat, per ESPN and Reuters. “To say that this is the end would be rushing myself, but I don’t guarantee anything either.

I will not close the door to playing with Brazil, nor do I say 100% that I’ll come back.”
