Brazil's national team has decided not to risk Neymar in the upcoming World Cup match against Haiti, following his return to full training yesterday, according to sports journalist Ben Goldfriend.
Brazil's World Cup campaign faces a fresh setback as star forward Neymar has been ruled out of the team's next group-stage match against Haiti, according to journalist Ben Goldfriend. The decision, attributed to the Brazilian coaching and medical staff, prioritizes the player's long-term fitness over immediate competition. Neymar had returned to full training yesterday, raising hopes of a return, but the national team has opted against risking a setback. Brazil's performance in the tournament so far has drawn disappointment, as The Zioneer has previously reported on the team's underwhelming form in the group stage. The extent of Neymar's absence — whether limited to this match or extending further — remains unspecified.
