“This country doesn’t deserve his talent & football”- Raphinha slams Brazil fans’ hatred towards Neymar after he gets injured at 2022 FIFA World Cup
Neymar after getting injured during the match against Serbia.
Brazil started their FIFA World Cup campaign with a bang against Serbia in their first group encounter. Brazil completely overpowered the entire match and the game was totally one-sided with the Brazilian players making it really hard for the Serbian defenders in the last 20 minutes of the match.
The night was really awesome for the Brazilian fans but it all got spoiled when the news came around that their star player Neymar will miss the next two FIFA World Cup group matches against Cameroon and Switzerland. Neymar’s good friend and teammate Raphinha has supported Neymar and delivered an Instagram post that also talked about how he is not given the respect he deserves by the Brazilian fans.
Neymar has also received a lot of hate from his own countrymates despite the fact that he has been delivering his everything for the country for 12 years now.
He has scored 75 goals for his country and he is just two short of Pele in becoming the all-time leading goalscorer of Brazil and his teammates would put in everything this year so that Neymar can finish his career with a World Cup and be written in the history books forever.

What did Raphinha say about Neymar after his injury at 2022 FIFA World Cup?
Raphinha was really sad about the fact that Neymar isn’t respected by Brazilian fans and in times like this where he has fractured his leg, he isn’t been supported as well. He said, “Argentina fans treat Messi as a God. Portugal fans treat Ronaldo as a King. Brazilian fans cheer for Neymar to break his leg.”
He added, “How sad, the biggest mistake in Neymar’s career is being born in Brazil. This country doesn’t deserve his talent & football.” With Neymar set to miss the next two matches for the yellow army, the samba boys will no doubt miss his voice on the pitch and other players will have to step up in order to take Brazil to the next stage for Neymar.
