Brazil star Neymar will miss the team’s next two games after suffering a right ankle injury in the team’s 2-0 win over Serbia on Thursday.
Neymar was subbed off in the 80th minute after he was fouled nine times. He was seen on the bench in the final moments of the win in tears as it appeared he immediately understood the severity of his ankle injury.
After the game, Brazil’s team doctor said that Neymar had suffered a “direct trauma” to his ankle. Brazil sits tied atop Group G with Switzerland after the Swiss beat Cameroon on Thursday.
