This Friday, June 12, 2026, the second day of the World Cup, the Brazilian selection is going through a period of uncertainty on the eve of its entry into the competition, due to Neymar's health. The attacker, still diminished by an injury to the calf, did not participate in the last training sessions, which raises serious questions about his availability for the start of the tournament.
According to the information available, Carlo Ancelotti, a Brazilian breeder, remains concerned about developments. Despite its inclusion in the list of players selected, Neymar remains uncertain about the opening match against Morocco, and its absence could extend to the entire group phase if its physical condition does not improve rapidly.
In this context, Brazil could be forced to adapt its offensive organization to face Morocco, Haiti and Scotland without one of its major cadres. Such an eventuality would be an important blow to Brazilian ambitions, which usually rely on Neymar as a key element of their offensive device.
