After playing a part in Brazil’s opening goal against Serbia on November 24, Neymar was forced from the field in the 80th minute. EVERYONE KNOWS WHY! He was tackled nine times in the match against Serbia… Neymar was the most fouled player — nine times out of a total of 12 committed by Serbia.
While the Paris Saint-Germain striker is no stranger to injuries, all eyes are now on his fitness and there are concerns over his continued participation in the World Cup. And Neymar was visibly emotional after leaving the field, and he was seen in tears on the bench.

As per GOAL, the medical staff will require up to 48 hours to give a final verdict on his injury. But Tite said:
“Don’t worry, Neymar will play the World Cup. He will keep playing, you can be sure about that.”

If Neymar’s injury means that he may miss the rest of the tournament, it is not Brazil’s loss alone. It is the world’s loss as well.
Neymar took to social media to congratulate his teammates after the win vs Serbia.
Jogo difícil, mas era importante ganhar.
