Neymar hoping for Brazil, Argentina final

Neymar says that he has spoken to his Barcelona teammate Lionel Messi about the possibility of a Brazil versus Argentina final in the World Cup this summer.

Barcelona forward Neymar has revealed that he has spoken to his teammate Lionel Messi about the possibility of a Brazil against Argentina final in the World Cup.

The two South American giants are among the favourites for the crown this summer, with Neymar and Messi both expected to star for their respective countries.

"I've even spoken to him about a possible final between Brazil and Argentina, obviously with Brazil winning," he told FIFA.com.

"I was always a big fan of his, and am even more so now that I know him. I have the good fortune to work with him every day and I wish him well in everything.

"He's surprised me a lot, even as a player. I never realised he was so great when I was just watching him on TV."

Neymar has recently returned from a one-month absence following an ankle injury.
