Midfielder Granit Jaka remembered his first meeting on the field with Brazilian leader Neimar.

Jacques and Neimar met for the first time on the field at the U17 world championships in 2009.

In that duel, Granite played the right midfielder, while Neymar was traditionally on the left flank.

On the confrontation with the Brazilian, Jaka did not have the best memories:.

"I remember only that he fell a lot, fell to the lawn from the slightest touch," said Granit.

"What can I say?" This was the reality at the time. In that match everything happened just like this ".

"Now Neymar is a world class player who alone can decide the outcome of the match, and I wish him all the best. I hope after the game we will meet and exchange T-shirts. In 2009, we did not do this, because they needed us for the next match, "- concluded Jacques.

The duel between Brazil and Switzerland will take place today and will begin at 21:00 Kyiv time. Watch the text online broadcast on Football. ua.
