Neymar, former forward for Barcelona and France's PSG football clubs, currently playing for Santos in his homeland, recalled the elimination from the 2022 World Cup.
Idman.Biz reports that the footballer's statement was published by local media.
It is worth recalling that at that time, in the 1/4 finals of the World Cup, the Brazilians lost to Croatia in a penalty shootout.
"I saw how my funeral would be. I was in a small room and my relatives were coming there. Everyone had tears in their eyes, they didn't say anything. They just looked at me. And I thought I was in a coffin," the footballer said.
It should be noted that Neymar has been playing for Santos in his homeland since January 2025.
This year, the forward has participated in six matches, scored three goals and had three assists.
