The 22nd running of the FIFA World cup will be the first world cup ever to be held in the Arab world and the 2nd time held in Asia after the 2002 FIFA World Cup in South Korea and Japan.
With his goals and attitude for Paris Saint-Germain this season, Neymar is gaining popularity with everyone.
Neymar needed minimal treatment after sustaining a slight cut to his right knee during Wednesday’s practice, but Brazil coach Tite indicated he was still expected to start against Ghana on Friday in what could be an exciting attack with Raphinha, Vinicius Junior, and Richarlison.
In Sunday’s 1-0 victory over Lyon, he tied Lionel Messi for the most passes for the French league with seven.
Neymar Stats: 2022 FIFA World Cup
He will have another opportunity to pass Pelé on Tuesday when Tunisia plays in a friendly at Parc des Princes, which is also the home of PSG. Brazil last played there in 1992, when Neymar was just six months old.
Neymar has scored 77 goals for Brazil. He increased his total with a penalty against South Korea in the round of 16. Then, in the quarterfinal match against Croatia, a fantastic goal tied him to Pele.
Neymar has improved since the 2018 FIFA World Cup when he attracted notice for his antics and his penchant for rolling over the ground after even the slightest of fouls.
Brazil’s 2022 FIFA World Cup adversaries in Group G are Serbia, Switzerland, and Cameroon. Neymar will be certain of reinforcing his objective count in those three games as he offers to compose his name close by Pelé’s as a World Cup victor.
The 2022 FIFA World Cup is going to be remarkable for sure and as Neymar has performed in the qualification matches and in Copa America he has just set a meter for his fans.
