每日英語跟讀 Ep.K516: About soccer - Neymar ’psychologically destroyed’ by World Cup exit

Neymar said Saturday he was "psychologically destroyed" by Brazil’s elimination from the World Cup in a penalty shootout defeat to Croatia and admitted it hurt more than any other loss in his career.

內馬爾週六說，巴西在12碼戰中敗給克羅埃西亞，從世界盃中淘汰，令他「心理上被擊垮」，並且承認此事對他的傷害，超過他生涯中其他任何一場敗仗。

Neymar scored a superb individual effort to equal Pele’s record goalscoring haul of 77 goals for the Selecao in Friday’s match that finished 1-1 after extra time.

週五的比賽經過延長賽後，以1比1平手，內馬爾在這場比賽中締造個人絕佳成績，追平比利為巴西國家足球隊踢進77球的紀錄。

But he never got to take a spot kick in the shootout that Croatia won 4-2 to move into the semi-finals.

但是他在12碼大戰中還沒上陣，克羅埃西亞就以4比2獲勝進入準決賽。

"I am psychologically destroyed," Neymar said in an Instagram message.

「我心理上被擊垮」，內馬爾在Instagram上發文說。
