The legendary attacker believes the PSG superstar can drive his nation to become world champions later this year.In an interview with Betfair, Rivaldo claimed:"Neymar might play his final World Cup; total focus to bring the Cup. At 30, Neymar is the right age to produce a superb World Cup and lead Brazil to glory for the first time since my teammates and I won it in Japan 20 years ago."He added:"I was also 30 in 2002 and it's a stage of your career in which you still have your best physical conditions along with much plenty of experience.

He might be wondering if this will be his last World Cup and that could drive his will to succeed and stamp his name on Brazilian football history."Firefootballrankings@Firefootball885.
