World Cup favourites Brazil are out of the tournament following their quarter-finals defeat to Croatia and there was a beautiful moment after the match involving the son of Tottenham star Ivan Perisic and Neymar.
Neymar was Brazil’s only goalscorer on the night but never got the chance to take a penalty, as his country were defeated 4-2 in the shootout.
The PSG superstar was devasted after the match and was seen in tears on the pitch, but that led to a beautiful moment as the son of Tottenham’s Ivan Perisic ran over to the 30-year-old to console him.
The moment captured the beauty of football as the Brazil star received a much-needed hug from one of his fans.
