The Brazilian was superb before the quarterfinals and his team paid dearly against Croatia.

Argentina and Lionel Messi are playing the most entertaining game of the World Cup to date, as they are fighting for a ticket to the quarterfinals and there is no clear winner yet. Now, Messi's brilliant moment is compared to what Neymar had to experience in Brazil.

In Brazil, there were already World Cup champions in Qatar. Several players showed their lack of humility and paid dearly against Croatia. One of them was Neymar, who had an arrogant attitude that was commented on in his country, while Lionel Messi has always shown a low profile during the competition.

It was not Vinicius or Casemiro, the main reason for the elimination of Neymar from Qatar

Neymar, a great friend of Lionel Messi, missed two group stage games and recently reappeared against South Korea. Before the round of 16 match, the Brazilian showed his cell phone, where he had the World Cup as a wallpaper. The striker wanted to win the competition for the first time and his arrogance prevented Canarinha from going any further.

While Neymar showed the less humble side of him, Lionel Messi has kept his cool throughout the tournament. He never said that he feels he is the favorite in Qatar and, as he went through stages, he kept the same speech with his eyes set on the grand final, to be played on December 18.

Lionel Messi's numbers in the World Cup in Qatar:

The captain of the Argentine team has played every minute in the World Cup in Qatar. He registers three goals and has been voted player of the match twice (against Mexico and Australia). The PSG striker is hoping to break his World Cup “slump” and claim the title for the first time (he came close in 2014, but lost to Germany).
