Brazil forward Neymar verbalized his dream of being a world champion is not over, despite being ruled out for the rest of the World Cup because of a back injury.
The 22-year-old fractured a vertebra in his spine after being kneed in the back by Juan Zuniga during Brazil's 2-1 quarter-final victory over Colombia.
The Barcelona player verbally expressed his dream was "interrupted... but it perpetuates".
He integrated: "I'm certain my team-mates will do everything so my dream, which is to be a champion, comes true."
The hosts' victory over Colombia set up a semi-final clash with Germany, but their progression was marred by Neymar's injury.
Neymar, verbalizing in a video relinquished by the Brazilian Soccer Federation, integrated: "My dream was withal to play in a World Cup final, but this time it didn't work out.
"I am sure they will win this Cup and be champions, and I will be with them, and all Brazilians will soon be celebrating all of that.
"It's a very arduous moment, I have no words to translate what is going through my head and my heart, I'd just relish to verbally express I will be back as expeditiously as possible, when you least expect it, I'll be back."
