Neymar has revealed he sported the same outrageous hairstyle as Ronaldo during Brazil's triumphant 2002 World Cup campaign.

据Goal网站报道，巴西球星内马尔透露，他将效仿罗纳尔多在2002年世界杯的经典福娃发型。

Ronaldo notched eight goals - including two in the final against Germany - to finish clear at the top of the scoring charts in Japan and South Korea, but made as many headlines for his appearance as his on-field heroics.

在2002年韩日世界杯上，罗纳尔多以8个球荣登得分榜首位，这其中包括决赛对战德国队时的2个进球。他在场上的出色表现使得他成为头条新闻的追逐对象。

The former Real Madrid striker shaved off all his hair except a section at the front, with the look since regularly topping lists of the worst haircuts in football history.

这位前皇马前锋剃掉了他所有的头发，只在前额留了一截。这是足球历史上最糟糕的发型。

But Neymar admits his admiration for Il Fenomeno prompted him to follow suit during the tournament, even though he claims he has forgotten most of the context of Brazil's fifth World Cup victory.

尽管内马尔声称，他已经忘记了巴西第五次世界杯胜利的事情，但他承认他钦佩奇才，这促使他在比赛期间效仿。

"In 2002, I had a haircut like Ronaldo's but I don't remember much," he told reporters at a press conference in Sao Paulo ahead of Thursday's tournament opener against Croatia. "I remember celebrating.

"Romario and Ronaldo are the two star players that I always think of when we talk about World Cups, especially 2002.

"I get inspiration from all players all over the world, players like Messi and Ronaldo, but I hope to follow my path together with my team."

“没错，我要留一个2002年罗纳尔多的发型，” 在与克罗地亚的揭幕赛前，内马尔在圣保罗的一场新闻发布会上告诉记者。“罗马里奥和罗纳尔多是我们谈论最多的两个世界杯球星，尤其是2002年的罗纳尔多。全世界的球员都值得我学习，他们带给了我灵感，尤其像C罗和梅西那样的优秀球员，但是我更希望能和自己的队伍一起前进。”
