Does Neymar still hold a grudge against Qatar World Cup bitter memories? The Brazilian star couldn't lead his team to victory in the quarterfinals, nor could he score the winning goal in extra time. They bid farewell to Brazil in the tiebreaker. Despite the loss that day, Neymar had achieved a remarkable milestone, touching a fantastic record. With that goal, he became Brazil's all-time top scorer alongside Pelé with 77 goals. Now, Neymar has the opportunity to surpass him.
After the World Cup, Neymar faced more challenges during his time with PSG due to injuries. However, amidst all these adversities, he received recognition from his former Barcelona teammate. Neymar received the "Fuji Klír" annual award for his contribution to Brazilian football, where he has achieved the highest number of goals and assists in the history of Brazil.
Receiving the award, Neymar stated, "This is an honor for me. I started this season well but then got injured. I have to stop and make a good comeback." In an Instagram post, Neymar wrote, "I never imagined scoring these goals. My dream was to wear the jersey of Brazil and play."
Besides Neymar, Thiago Silva was also present at the awards ceremony. Later, Neymar shared a photo with Silva on his Instagram story, where he wrote, "I am your fan."
Among others, Vinicius Junior won the "Pelé Award" for the highest number of goals and assists (goal assists) on foreign soil. Pedro won the award for scoring the most goals for Brazil, and Gustavo Scarpa from Palmeiras won the award for the most assists made in Brazil.
In the UEFA Champions League final, Ederson won the award for outstanding goalkeeping between Manchester City and Inter Milan. In Brazil, Atlético Goianiense's goalkeeper, Ronaldo, won the award for the most beautiful goal. On the international stage (in the match against Serbia in the Qatar World Cup), Richardson won the award for the most beautiful goal.
