Brazil striker Richarlison still can’t come to terms with the defeat in the quarter-finals of the World Cup.
The Brazilian told “ESPN” how difficult it was for them to be eliminated from Croatia.
“It was a blow. I think it’s worse than losing a family member. It was hard to recover. To this day, when I watch videos on social media, it makes me sad. But we have to move on. I’m still young, I think I still have one or two World Cups ahead of me” said Richarlison.
Brazil was the first favorite to win the title. He easily passed the group, and in the round of 16 he was convincing against South Korea 4:1. In the continuation of the championship, they lost against Croats after the “penalty lottery”.
Richarlison scored two goals in the championship, and one of them was the one with scissors against Serbia, which was declared the most beautiful goal of the tournament.
“The goal was to become champions. Yes, I scored a beautiful goal, but I don’t think that goal was my goal. We went there to get the trophy“.
