It’s not going well for Neymar. The Brazilian soccer icon would have aspired to do well against Uruguay after the entire commotion on and off the field after Venezuela. However, luck did not favor the soccer veteran. Neymar had to be substituted after the injury. He was also seen leaving on crutches after the match. Without a doubt, that might turn out to be a nightmare for Brazil and Al Hilal.

The Al Hilal star will now likely miss the next few matches for his club too. Further medical treatment will also happen after the player returns to Saudi Arabia. This is also a terrible blow personally for Neymar as he would have wanted to play and start games consistently this season.

Neymar on crutches after his injury against Uruguay

Brazil lost their World Cup qualifier match against Uruguay 2-0. But this is not the worst thing that happened. During the game, Neymar had to be taken off on a stretcher. The soccer veteran was visibly distressed and had tears in his eyes. After the game, he was also seen leaving after the match on a crutch. But he obliged for a photo with the child despite his injury. It is likely that Neymar has suffered a left knee injury.

The Brazil’s medical team have provided an update on Neymar at the end of the match. However, the diagnosis of the tests will arrive after 24 hours. Therefore, it is very early to make an assumption about the seriousness of the knee injury. So, for now, it is a waiting game for all. But one thing is clear this is a terrible blow in the scheme of things for Brazil and Al Hilal in the short term.

Neymar is likely to miss very important matches for Al Hilal even if it is a short-term injury. Al Hilal is currently 1st on the Saudi Pro League table.
