The defiant Paris Saint-Germain star has also hit out at "bull****" critics accusing him of playacting.

Neymar's dive during a 2018 World Cup game against Mexico, which saw him bizarrely roll around on the pitch, was widely ridiculed on social media.

And luxury fragrance line Diesel used the theme in the ad of their newest cologne Spirit of the Brave.

In the commercial, the Brazil star sits in a tattoo studio in Rio de Janeiro and shares his thoughts on bravery.

Halfway through the video, Neymar, 27, tells fans not to "fear failure" and "laugh at their fears" while he trips and rolls down the stairs in a flashback from a public appearance.

The video then cuts to social media users sharing the video of his fall, with views reaching high numbers.

And the PSG forward likes one of the posts and chuckles at it.

Neymar also says: "They say the brave are fearless. Bull****. Without fear, bravery cannot exist.

"The brave face their fears and smile at them, because there is no magic trick to make them disappear."

He adds: "So keep smiling and shut up the critics", while putting his finger - with "shhh" tattooed on it - to his lips.

Meanwhile, Neymar - whose season is over as he is serving a three-game ban for striking a Rennes fan - enjoyed his break from football by partying with Rihanna, 31.

The Brazil international and the Pop star posed for a snap together, which the PSG ace then shared with his 116m followers on Instagram.

And Neymar is seemingly still bitter as he again pulls off a shushing gesture while standing next to RiRi.

Following Brazil's disappointing World Cup in Russia, the forward only won the Ligue 1 with the Parisians this year.

PSG had also suffered a shocking Champions League exit at the hands of Manchester United in the round of 16.

The defeat caused Neymar to go off and slam the officials with an X-rated rant.

He has been punished for that outburst too and the forward will miss three Euro games next season.
