After a stunning win over Mexico, Brazil secured a berth in the quarterfinals of the FIFA World Cup 2018 on Monday. Brazil knocked Mexico out of the tournament with a 2-0 victory. And leading Brazil from the front, Neymar Jr dominated their Latin American neighbour quite well in the second-half.

As fans around the globe glued to the TV screen in anticipation of who would emerge as the winner, it was a mixed-bag of emotions for all. With most popular teams including Germany, Argentina, Portugal and Spain exiting the World Cup early — soccer fans had pinned their hope on the five-time champions. But with Mexico’s impressive performance in this edition and many dubbing it as a ‘World of the underdogs’, many were hoping them to qualify in the third round as well.

Mexico lost but they did an incredible job and I’m so proud of them. Ochoa is an amazing goal keeper and Neymar is literally the biggest baby alive. That’s all I have to say. VIVA MEXICO ❤️🇲🇽 #MexicoVsBrasil

The one thing that has impressed me the most in this world cup is Neymar’s acting skills.
