Brazil`s enigmatic striker Neymar, 30, had urged the country’s football-crazy fans via a social media post on Friday to “have faith” soon after he hobbled off the pitch during his team’s 2-0 win over Serbia. 

No great news

However, Brazil’s team doctor Rodrigo Lasmar has now revealed, following tests, that he will miss the team’s second World Cup game against Switzerland on Monday as the ankle injury he suffered following a tackle by Serbia’s Nikola Milenkovic on a night, where he was the most tackled player (nine times), had not healed. Some reports even suggest that the PSG star may miss the remainder of the group phase and will return to World Cup action only if Brazil qualify for the second round.
