Injured in the ankle against Serbia, Neymar was seen wandering the streets of Doha by journalists from Fox Sports.
Optimism has returned to the Brazilian ranks. While the sky seemed to have fallen on the head of the Seleçao in the last minutes of the match against Serbia when Neymar collapsed on the lawn of the Stade de Lusail, victim of a sprained ankle, the Brazilians want more and more confident about their playmaker. While his unavailability had initially been estimated at around ten days, the former Barcelona player could return to the field in the third match against Cameroon.
According to Eric Frosio, correspondent for The team in Brazil, Tite would indeed consider giving playing time to Neymar during the match against the Indomitable Lions so that he does not run out of pace in the round of 16, a sign that this evolution of the native’s injury de Santos is going in the right direction.
Although forfeited for the match against Brazil on Monday, Neymar is doing so well that he was caught by FOX Sports cameras wandering the streets of Doha. Wearing shorts and a polo shirt in the colors of Brazil, sunglasses and a cap screwed on his head, the Parisian No. 10 was filmed by several individuals alongside them. But this supposed Neymar was not Neymar but a Neymar look-alike. Enough to force the American channel to a mea culpa. “Neymar has a very convincing double”, nevertheless noted the FOX.
