Brazil manager Tite has included star player Neymar in his side to face South Korea at the 2022 Qatar World Cup. The Paris Saint-Germain winger missed the final two group stage matches after suffering from an ankle injury sustained in the 2-0 victory over Serbia.
Neymar has been a doubt for the last-16 ever since after images of his swollen foot emerged. The South American's managed to qualify for the knockout stages without their talisman though, beating Switzerland 1-0 to secure their passage with a game to spare before losing the final game 1-0 against Cameroon with a heavily rotated side.
Tite is fortunate to have a dearth of attacking talent at his disposal with Raphinha, Vinicius Jr, Gabriel Martinelli, Rodrygo and Richarlison all able to fill in for the 30-year-old, but his return/absence for this game remains a big boost/loss.
