The captain of the Brazilian national team, Tiago Silva, commented on the form of Paris Saint-Germain striker Neymar, from whom he expects a lot at this World Cup.
Neymar had problems with injuries at the previous two World Cups, and the Brazilians hope that Qatar is finally the opportunity to lead their selection in the campaign for the title, which begins tomorrow with the match against Serbia.
“I think Neymar is coming to this World Cup in great shape. This time he prepared differently.
When he played well in 2014, he suffered an injury, and he came to the previous championship injured, so he did not play much.
It’s different now, he’s much better prepared,” said Silva at the conference before the match with Serbia.
The match between Serbia and Brazil will be played tomorrow at 20:00.
