Eden Hazard has demanded more protection for star players at the World Cup after Neymar issued an emotional update on his injury lay-off.
Neymar was withdrawn in the 80th minute of Brazil’s 2-0 victory over Serbia in their first World Cup game on Thursday. The Paris Saint-Germain man was then pictured in tears on the bench, whilst images of his swollen ankle began to circulate on social media after the game.
The Brazilian superstar has been ruled out of his nation’s next group game against Switzerland and it is almost certain he will also miss the following group clash against Cameroon. Neymar and his international teammate Danilo have both been ruled out with ankle injuries.
