Brazilian superstar Neymar witnessed the 1-0 victory in the second group stage match of the World Cup against Switzerland in the team hotel, but not only due to his ankle injury. His teammate Vinicius Junior revealed after the match that the 30-year-old was also slightly ill.
“He was sad not to have been able to come, he feels a little bad,” the outsider told the broadcaster GlobeTV: “Not only for the foot, but also for a little fever. I hope you recover as soon as possible”.
Neymar tore ligaments in his right ankle in the 2-0 win against Serbia. It is not clear when he will be able to return to play. In any case, he will miss the final qualifying round match against Cameroon on Friday. On the one hand, Brazil has already reached the round of 16, on the other hand, the association has now confirmed in a video that it is not yet fit enough.
