Neymar's superb performance vs Argentina in Brazil's Copa America final defeat showed he was "let down" by his teammates in one fan's compilation.

Brazil, who won the 2019 edition of the Copa America, defeated Peru 1-0 in the semi-finals to punch their ticket to the final.

However, Tite's men failed to defend the Copa America title on home soil as Angel Di Maria fired Argentina to the trophy on Sunday at the Maracana.

Neymar's only major honour with Brazil came in 2013 with the Confederations Cup, with the Paris Saint-Germain superstar missing out on the 2019 Copa America due to an ankle injury.

The 29-year-old Brazilian winger's wait for a Copa America title continues, but in the meantime, some fans have pulled no punches towards Neymar.

Neymar has been accused by some fans of underdelivering on the highest stage for Brazil, while others have staunchly defended his performance against Argentina.

"He let himself down, he will get nowhere holding on to the ball forever. Like, we get you can dribble, FFS," one fan posted.

A second Twitter user wrote: "Let down, he let down his country for [his] Messi friendship, I'm sure he wants more Messi to win than himself..."

While someone else argued: "What is so special in this? Neymar will never win a major trophy like [the] UCL, World Cup, Copa if he continues to showboat like this."

And a fourth added: "Neymar's bad luck for Brazil."

Despite Di Maria scooping the Man of the Match award, other fans praised Neymar for his performance and even argued he was the "best player" in the match.

One fan tweeted: "I'mma be real. He gave me Messi 2016 vibes tonight. He carried the attack all by himself. Earned my respect."

A second Twitter user said: "He was the best player today and it's not even close."

While a third posted: "The whole Divemar is a myth, man The amount of times Neymar is getting two-footed and keeps going is unreal."

Someone else added: "What more was Neymar supposed to do? Stop playing with him. Put some respect on his name."

Neymar congratulated his former Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi in a touching moment after Brazil's defeat to Argentina.

Messi ended his long drought for a major international honour with Argentina by lifting the 2021 Copa America title as captain of his country.

The 34-year-old Argentine forward, who is currently a free agent, had his hands in his face during an emotional moment when he realised Argentina defeated Brazil.
