The Brazil that everyone respects and admires is back; a team that enjoys good football. And that makes us happy. The mood of our fans and our country has changed. "Everyone's confident and happy looking ahead to the World Cup. You can't put a price on that."The 2014 World Cup was particularly painful for Neymar, who was forced out of the event with a back injury. Neymar fractured a vertebra in his spine having taken a knee to the back from Juan Zuniga during Brazil's 2-1 win over Colombia in the quarter-finals. "It's strange because I didn't finish that World Cup the way I wanted to. Obviously I wanted to crown it with the title, but I neither won nor lost. I didn't finish the World Cup. My tournament ended with a serious injury and, unfortunately, I had to pay for that," Neymar added. "That was a really bad week for me. I cried a lot and asked myself many times why it had happened. But eventually you understand that everything that happens in life makes you stronger, even if it's not something you want at that particular time. It helps you to learn and prepare yourself better in the future."I think this World Cup is going to be huge for Brazilians. Personally, I'm going give everything I've got to win it."</blockquote>
