Marcos Evangelista de Morais, eternal Cafu, was twice champion of the World Cup in 1994 and 2002, and in the latter the ace was captain of the Brazilian team. In an exclusive interview with TNT Sports, the former player was full of praise for Neymar, pointing out his superiority in technical terms in world football.

“Phenomenon. Technically, one of the best players I've seen play in the last 20 years. Technically, Neymar is better than Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, De Bruyne and any player you can imagine. It is an impressive skill.”


In addition, Cafu highlighted the importance of Neymar for the Brazilian national team.
“He is a player that we always put hope in what he could do in terms of the Brazilian national team. He really makes the difference.”


Having experience in the matter, the former player points out what must be done for Neymar to win his first World Cup. According to Cafu, the Brazilian team needs to play for Neymar, and the star player needs to play for the national team.

“We did this in 1994 with Bebeto and Romário, in 2002 with Ronaldo and Rivaldo. We had the humility to play for Ronaldo and Rivaldo. In the group, it didn't matter who would be better, who would be a goalscorer, who would be the best on the field. We played in groups. I think that's what Neymar lacked when talking about the Brazilian team. Play for the Brazilian team and make the Brazilian team play for Neymar. It would be the perfect marriage and Brazil would have won a Cup long before.”


Neymar had the opportunity to play in three World Cups: 2014, 2018 and 2022, reaching the semifinals in 2014. /p>
