Football superstar Neymar is obviously thinking about the end of his career after the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. “I think it will be my last World Cup. I’ll play it as if it was my last because I don’t know whether I’ll still have the mental strength to deal with football afterwards, ”said the 29-year-old Brazilian in a DAZN documentary.
As expected, Neymar would like to say goodbye with the world title. “I will do everything I can to go to the 2022 World Cup in top shape and win it for my country, to make my biggest dream come true since I was little. I hope I can do it, ”he said. With his club Paris St. Germain, Neymar still has a contract until 2026.
At the 2014 World Cup in their own country, Brazil were eliminated from the semi-finals with a spectacular 7-1 win against Germany, but Neymar was injured in this game.
At the 2018 World Cup in Russia, the five-time world champion with Neymar failed in the quarter-finals to Belgium (1: 2). So far, the superstar has only won the Confederations Cup 2013 and Olympic gold 2016 in Rio with the Selecao.
Brazil is currently in first place in the South America group in World Cup qualifiers. After nine wins and the 0-0 win against Peru on Sunday, the lead over arch-rivals Argentina is six points.
