Jota once regretted missing his first World Cup in his career: The World Cup is the heaviest blow I have suffered

July 3rd Liverpool striker Jota died in a traffic accident at the age of 28.

Previously, Jota talked about missing his first World Cup in his career due to injury in an interview: "Last season, my journey with the national team ended with an injury in the last game, and then I was injured again in the preseason. After recovering from the injury, I played a few more games and ended up with a serious injury in October. Maybe it was because I was not in the preseason, which was the worst injury I have ever encountered in my career."

"When you feel like I am , when I left on a stretcher, it didn't look good. But you still hope that things aren't serious, because it's too close to the World Cup, I just hope I can recover in time. When I was told I didn't and couldn't play in the World Cup, it was the hardest blow of my career, and all I could feel was sad. "

"I had the opportunity to play in my first World Cup, and I knew I played an important role in the national team-I played an important role in the qualifying round , so I think I should be in the World Cup, but I can't. "

" The day after the decision was announced, Klopp gave me a hug. He knew that there was nothing to say at that moment, he just wanted to comfort me. During my recovery, every time he saw me, he would ask me how it was. You'll notice that he cared about you, and that's all you can ask-the team leader cares about all the players and shows that he will rely on you as long as you return from injury. "

" Go Liverpool held a training camp in Dubai in December. It wasn't far from the World Cup, and I watched Portugal's latter group match against South Korea. But we lost in the end, and I said, 'I won't come back to see the game again, I probably won't bring luck.' I was there to support the team, but I wanted to play. Then, seeing the team struggled to score goals in the quarterfinal against Morocco, you know you can make an impact, but you can't do it."
