Tottenham and Brazil striker Richarlison has commented on the national team's exit from the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
The Brazilians lost to Croatia (1-1, 2-4 on penalties) in the World Cup quarter-final game. The meeting was held in Riyadh at the Education City stadium and ended with a victory for Zlatko Dalić's wards.
It was a shock, I don't know ... I think it's worse than losing a family member. It was hard to recover. Even today, when I watch videos on my social media, I get sad. But you have to move on. I'm still young, and I think I have one or two more World Cups ahead of me. Our goal for the 2022 World Cup was to become champions.

The tournament in Qatar took place from November 20 to December 18, 2022. The reigning world champion is Argentina, which defeated France in the decisive match (3-3, 4-2 on penalties).
