In the early morning of the 25th, Beijing time, the last match of the first round of the Qatar World Cup group stage began, and Brazil defeated Serbia 2-0 to get a good start.

However, Neymar 's tears became the focus of the last moment of the game. In this game, he suffered a total of 9 fouls and injured his right ankle in a collision and was replaced.

Although head coach Titt said after the game that Neymar will continue to compete in the World Cup, many fans are still saddened by his experience. Some netizens joked helplessly, "Everyone is showing off, only the horse is being beaten."

As the core figure on the offensive line of the Samba Legion, Neymar was given the key care of his opponents in the opening game of the World Cup, and almost all of the "eighteen martial arts" were used on him.

Most opponents restrict Neymar from taking the ball by double-teaming, sometimes using tough physical confrontation against him, and sometimes using rough foul actions.

fast speed, outstanding skills, excellent shooting skills, etc. Neymar's football talent does not need to be described too much, which is also the reason why he has repeatedly been fouled on the court. Because the opponent knows that once Neymar is allowed to pass, his methods of threatening the goal are too diverse.

data shows that in the match against Serbia , Neymar was fouled 9 times in 79 minutes, surpassing the Spanish genius Garvey (5 times), becoming the player with the most fouls in a single game so far in this World Cup.

But he still made considerable contributions to Brazil's offensive end, with 4 shots, 42 passes and 3 key passes.

In the 69th minute of the game, Neymar was fouled by his opponent, causing his ankle to be severely deformed. After continuing to persist for 10 minutes, he applied for a substitution due to unbearable pain.

From the post-match photos, it can be clearly seen that his ankle was obviously swollen,

. On the bench, Neymar looked solemn and burst into tears. Teammates are also paying attention to his injuries. Such a scene makes fans worry about his journey to this World Cup.

In response to this, Brazilian coach Titt said in an interview, "Nemar will continue to participate, which is certain. His ankle has some swelling, and we need him to participate in the second group stage at 100%.

It is worth noting that when leaving the stadium, although Neymar was in a low mood, he still gave a thumbs up to the camera lens.

Although fans are willing to take this reassurance, many people still feel sympathy for the experience of the "horse".

There are many netizens who even joked helplessly. "Everyone or ghost is showing off, only the horse is being beaten up."

Some netizens also said that this is the arena. Like Neymar, every famous player has not been targeted less. For opponents, this is their tactic.

In fact, Neymar is the target of being targeted for both the World Cup and the league. 2018 Russia World Cup , his record of 10 fouls in a single game is the highest in this tournament.

But the most shocking thing is in 2014 Brazil World Cup . In the quarterfinals, he was injured by the opponent with his knee and caused a crack in the lumbar vertebrae, and said goodbye regretfully. After that, Brazil was defeated 7-1 by Germany in the semi-finals.

data shows that Neymar has suffered four serious injuries in the past six years, including one lumbar vertebrae fracture, two metatarsal fractures, and one ankle ligament rupture.

In addition to age, injuries are the biggest opponent of any athlete. Neymar, who is at the peak of his career at the age of 30, has fought with this old opponent too many times.

In another four years, the 34-year-old Neymar does not know how he will be in shape, so he said before this event that he would cherish every opportunity to play very much. This time I will play like a farewell match, and I often tell my dad that I should treat each game as the last one because you don’t know what will happen tomorrow. ”

In recent years, many fans have said that Neymar is mature and he is no longer the thorn that will argue with his teammates, and he is no longer criticized for "fake falls."

This season, foreign media repeatedly exposed his "disagreement" with Mbappe , but the latter broke the rumors on the court early, and contributed 15 goals and 12 assists in various competitions so far, many of which were "cakes" for Mbappe.

Time smoothed out his edges and made Neymar focus more on football itself. I hope he is injured without any hindrance and wish him good luck in this World Cup.
