Unfortunately I confess, this is true! lol Modric was onfire
An important point that was decisive for Croatia is that Brazil was extremely unresponsive after Croatia goal.
Brazil was destabilized and emotionally affected, especially on penalties
Apart from Luka Modric, there are four other players who also played a role in helping Croatia finish fourth at the Qatar World Cup. Brazil, which is considered a strong candidate at the Qatar World Cup, had to admit Croatia's superiority through a penalty shoot-out after a draw in normal and extra time. LOL

I confess don't have a definite answer
I believe... in 2026 it could be Neymar's last cup.
And I also imagine, the 2022 World Cup was the last one for Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi (although, they still have physical preparation and a lot of technique and skill
Brazil has always been able to produce talented players in any position and if you look at the age of Neymar at this time then the 2026 world cup will be the last. Because at this time many other young players are showing almost the same quality as Neymar and they just need the opportunity to play and maybe Copa America will be a place for young players to gain the trust of coaches.

At least if in the future World Cup Neymar is still the player of choice, they can enter as a substitute in the squad and I don't think the quality of Brazilian players need to be doubted, but usually young players who are owned by Brazil are more emotional and cannot control their emotions during play, so coaches should try to give them opportunities when the time is right and have senior players guiding them.
