The Brazilian captain refused to miss the opportunity
Brazil captain Neymar da Silva mocked German coach Joachim Clement after the Seleção reached the eighth final of the 2026 World Cup.
Brazil qualified for the Round of 16 after a draw with Japan They won (2-1) in the last minute with a score of 90+6, thanks to the goal of “Arsenal” star Gabriel Martinelli.
German economist Joachim Clement, who works in a British investment bank, predicted a surprise defeat for Brazil against Japan in the 32nd round of the World Cup.
But Neymar refused to let the opportunity pass and after qualifying, wrote sarcastically on his official ‘X’: “Mr Joachim Clement…try again at the next World Cup!”
Neymar remained on the bench throughout the match and did not play a single minute, although he was fit and played for a few minutes in the third group stage match against Scotland.

In the 16th round, Brazil is waiting for the winner of the confrontation between Cote d’Ivoire and Norway to be held on Tuesday evening.
Clement gained wide fame due to the accuracy of his successive World Cup predictions, where he succeeded in tipping Germany to the title in 2014, then he predicted France to be crowned in 2018, and finally he tipped Argentina to win the title in 2022, which was actually achieved all three times.
Clement nominated the Netherlands team to win the 2026 World Cup, which will be held in the USA, Canada and Mexico.
