“We were bored because we weren’t there. We were there to give our best, to be champions, to make history, that’s why we played together again. We came there to make history. Unfortunately, we didn’t,” he added.

Neymar is optimistic about the current and future of the Brazil team

In the interview, the 31-year-old Brazilian also highlighted the professionalism of his teammates Vinicius Jr. and Rodrigo.
