Neymar has revealed that he is still proud of his Paris Saint Germain teammates despite their Champions League elimination.

Neymar defended the efforts of his teammates, as the injured star watched from the side-lines as PSG were knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid on Tuesday.

The Brazilian, who is recovering from surgery on his fractured foot, watched helplessly as his side crashed to a 5-2 aggregate defeat after losing the second at the leg 2-1 at the Parc des Princes.

The Parisians who ended the game with 10-men after Marco Veratti was sent off in the second half undoubtedly missed Neymar in the second leg.

The former Barcelona man wrote on Twitter: “I am sad for defeat, much sadder for not being in the field helping my companions!!

“What makes me proud is to see everyone’s effort. Congratulations my guys, ALLEZ PARIS.”

The Ligue 1 leaders will now have to turn their attention back to the domestic competitions as European success eludes them once again.
