Neymar and Brazil international teammate, Danilo have been ruled out for the remainder of the World Cup group stages after suffering injuries during their tournament opener.
The Selecao opened up their Group G campaign in style on Thursday evening with a 2-0 victory over Serbia. It looked as though they would be left frustrated but two goals
from Tottenham forward Richarlison – including an eye-catching bicycle kick – ensured Tite’s side got off to a winning start.
Despite the result, there were worrying scenes as Neymar was withdrawn in the 80th minute of the clash following a heavy collision with Nikola Milenkovic. He was then pictured in tears on the bench, whilst images of his swollen ankle began to circulate on social media after the match.
Neymar and Danilo both suffered ankle injuries during the second half of their clash against the European side; with Neymar’s forced withdrawal with ten minutes remaining of the match coming as a result of a heavy challenge, while Juventus defender, Danilo completed the game despite the injury.
