Neymar said losing is part of the sport as the tearful Paris Saint-Germain star congratulated Bayern Munich on being crowned Champions League winners.
PSG were unable to cap their first Champions League final appearance with silverware following a 1-0 defeat to Bayern in Lisbon on Sunday.

Inter host Atalanta on Sunday in a game that forward Rodrigo Palacio has dubbed a must-win clash in their quest for European football.
Walter Mazzarri s men head into the game unbeaten in six Serie A matches and still retain slim hope of gaining qualification for the UEFA Champions League.
Inter are 11 points behind Napoli, who currently occupy the final Champions League qualification berth and welcome fourth-placed Fiorentina to Stadio San Paolo this weekend.
A place in next season s UEFA Europa League, courtesy of finishing fourth or fifth, appears a much more realistic aim for Inter.
And with sixth-placed Parma only one point behind the 18-time Italian champions, Palacio knows it is vital his side claim three points against an Atalanta outfit seeking a fourth …
Marco Verratti insists he wants to stay at Paris Saint-Germain and is close to agreeing a new contract with the French champions.
The Italy international has established himself as one of Europe s finest young midfielders since joining from Pescara in 2012 and has been linked with a potential big-money move away from the Parc des Princes.

The Bundesliga leaders recorded a 1-0 win in the first game courtesy of an early Arturo Vidal strike and will be looking to book their ticket for the final four on Wednesday.
Bernat is well aware that it will not be straightforward for Bayern, though, and hopes they can get an early goal at the Estadio da Luz to make things easier.
The game against Benfica will be like a war, Bernat told TZ.
Benfica will be hugely motivated and try to take advantage of the home advantage. It will be a great game, I have no doubt about that.
I hope that we can score an important away goal. That…

Scotland will join England in taking the knee when the great rivals meet at Euro 2020, as head coach Steve Clarke vowed to fight racism and tackle ignorance .
England s players have been going down on one knee before games as a protest against racism, while Scotland have since March stood together as a group to make their own united statement.
They intend to carry on in that way but will make an exception for the England game at Wembley on June 18, having been disappointed by reactions to their own method of facing down discrimination.
A frustrated Clarke said that some individuals and groups have sought to politicise or misrepresent the Scotland national team position .
He reiterated his squad s view that the purpose of taking the knee has been dilu…
Kylian Mbappe has insisted he has never asked Paris Saint-Germain to sign any players in response to recent comments made by president Nasser Al-Khelaifi.
The 22-year-old s future at the Parc des Princes remains a hot topic of discussion as he is soon to enter the final year of his contract.
He did little to quell speculation earlier this week in an interview with France Football when admitting he is unsure whether PSG is the best place for him.
That comes on the back of rumours that Mbappe is stalling on signing a new contract until more high-profile signings are made by last season s Ligue 1 runners-up.
In response to that, Al-Khelaifi stated earlier this week it is not possible for Mbappe to have any say over the club s recruitment and that he will not…

An Independent Regulatory Commission will begin hearing the charges on May 3 with a decision expected three days later.

The charges also included allegedly making payments to an unauthorised agent and providing false information and documents to the FA.
