Neymar tearful at World Cup 2014 Show-down with Mexico

I couldn't watch the Brazil v Mexico match yesterday so I was anxious to know who won. Naturally, I though it would be Brazil, but alas no! It was a draw... Then I heard the full story of how the events unfolded.

Some people say that Neymer was crying because he was moved by his country's anthem. But I think it was more about facing the hardcore Mexicans. Shedding a few tears at the start of the match, the Brazilian footballer, Neymer probably sensed that his team had to lot to live up to. He was again the star of the match as she tried his hardest to break through the Mexican wall of resistance at yesterday's World Cup game. The Brazilian team were not just up to scratch, couldn't win any games and can't compare with past Brazilian teams.
