Neymar should be fine to continue in the World Cup despite limping off with a swollen ankle during his team’s 2-0 victory over Serbia, coach Tite said.
Neymar should be fine to continue in the World Cup despite limping off with a swollen ankle during his team’s 2-0 victory over Serbia on Thursday, coach Tite said.
“We are confident that Neymar will continue playing, he will continue playing in the World Cup,” Tite told reporters, confessing that he was initially unaware of his striker’s injury. Team doctor Rodrigo Lasmar said Brazil would wait 24-48 hours before assessing Neymar’s injury. The Paris St Germain striker, the most expensive player in the world following his record 222 million-euro transfer from Barcelona, played a pivotal role in Brazil’s win in their first game in Group G in Qatar.
He wriggled into the box to pass to Vinicius Jr. to set up Richarlison for Brazil’s opening goal in the second half.
