After the match, people also talked about Neymar considering leaving the Brazilian team, about this being the player's last World Cup. This year Neymar is 30 years old, and in 4 years he will be 34 years old while Croatia's "old man" Luka Modrić is 37 years old and still plays like a young man in his 20s. It must be said again, Brazil is a country that produces goods. A series of attacking stars, whether in 4 years Neymar will still be able to keep the main kick, is difficult to know. Of course, all comparisons are lame, but not seeing Neymar play in the yellow and green shirt will be a big regret for the fans.

Who knows, 4 years from now, Neymar and his teammates can both dance Samba and raise the 6th World Cup trophy?
