DOHA: Brazilian football icon Neymar has hinted that he may not play for his country after losing to Croatia in the World Cup Qatar 2022.
'Honestly, I do not know. I think talking now is bad because of the heat of the moment. Maybe I'm not thinking straight,' Neymar told reporters.
'To say that this is the end would be rushing myself, but I don't guarantee anything either. Let's see what happens going forward.
'I want to take this time to think about it, think about what I want for myself. I will not close the door to playing with Brazil, nor do I say 100 percent that I'll come back,' he added.
Against Croatia, Neymar put the South Americans ahead with a brilliant mazy run in the first half of extra time, but Croatia equalized three minutes from time and then won a penalty shootout.
