Bab 187: The ultimate test; the grandest stage

"Neymar Jnr…"

An even deeper silence fell inside this dressing room.

Coach Diego took a deep breath as he looked across this room before he continued. "In the old 21st century era, 1 player was considered by all as the best Brazilian player to ever cross the earth".

"His name is none other than Pele".

"Right behind Pele, 3 names come to mind".

"Ronaldo for efficiency".

"Ronaldinho and Neymar for skills and joga bonito".

Coach Diego brought a remote out and pressed the green button on it.

Bzzz!

A virtual projection appeared in the air the next moment.

Inside this virtual projection, a familiar player was standing donning the iconic Brazilian national team jersey of the 2014 FIFA World Cup 2014.

He had his back to the camera and was looking sideways at the waving fans.

With a clenched right fist, he acknowledged their cheers.

This was none other than Neymar Junior.
