But it was a matter of disappointment for Neymar and Brazil’s fans that this team could not reach beyond the quarter-finals. In the match played on Friday, the Croatian team eliminated Brazil by defeating them 4-2 in the penalty shootout. After this defeat, the Brazilian team came under target of social media users.

The people of Qatar also condemned the incident
This incident of picking up and throwing the cat was also criticized a lot in Qatar. The reason for this is that in the Gulf countries, especially in Qatar, the cat and its species of animals are highly respected. Even during the press conference, some journalists had interrupted the officer for this. On this he immediately pointed out that he was only removing the cat and leaving it on the other side.
