After suffering a season-ending ACL injury against Uruguay in the World Cup, Brazilian soccer star Neymar expressed his grief over the injury on social media. He shared that this was the most painful moment of his entire career.

Neymar put it this way: "This is a heartbreaking moment and without a doubt the most challenging moment in my professional career. Although I know I possess a strength, I now need more support from my loving family and my closest friends."

"It's a tough road to go through injuries and surgeries, especially when you've already spent four months in rehab from a previous injury... I have had faith in my own healing, maybe even too much faith... Now I surrender my strength to God's care and hope for His help. I want to thank you all for your support and love."

Several Brazilian media sources have reported that Neymar will be absent for the remainder of the season due to the serious injury to his cruciate ligament and meniscus. This will also affect Brazil's World Cup qualifiers against Colombia and Argentina.
