There is no peace for Neymar. Just two weeks after his return to the pitch, the Brazilian was forced to stop again. Yet another injury arrived during Al Hilal-Esteghlalmatch valid for the Asian Champions League, played on Monday 4 November. Neymar came on in the 58th minute in place of Abdullah Al Hamddan, with his team leading 2-0. Shortly after his entry, the attacker suffered a hard attack from behind by Zamani. The Iranian Esteghlal player was booked, while Neymar immediately felt pain in his right thigh. The Brazilian tried to resist, but in the 87th minute he was forced to ask for a substitution just half an hour after entering the pitch: once he arrived on the bench, the number 10 appeared visibly frustrated by yet another injury.
His return to the national team could be postponed
Neymar had recently returned to the pitch after a long injury. Two weeks ago, in fact, he finally set foot on the playing field again an absence of over a year due to the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament and the left meniscussuffered in the match between Brazil and Uruguay on 17 October 2023. Neymar was seen again at the end of the Asian Champions match between his Al Hilal and Al Ain last 21 October. After just two weeks, here it is a new injury (probably muscular) which could also postpone his return to the national team: the Brazil coach, Dorival Junior, had in mind to call him up for the next matches against Venezuela and Uruguay, matches valid for the South American qualifiers for the next World Cup.

**Interview with Sports Analyst, Jose Silva, on Neymar’s Latest Injury**
**Interviewer:** Thank you for joining us, Jose. Neymar’s recent injury just two weeks after his much-anticipated return raises concerns. What’s your take on the situation?
**Jose Silva:** Thank you for having me. It’s certainly disappointing to see Neymar sidelined again, especially after his lengthy recovery from the anterior cruciate ligament injury. His contributions on the pitch are invaluable, and this injury feels like a major setback not just for him personally, but for Al-Hilal as well.
**Interviewer:** It must be frustrating for Neymar, who only began playing again recently. How do you think this affects his mental and physical state?
**Jose Silva:** Absolutely. Coming back from a serious injury is a huge emotional and physical challenge. To suffer another setback so soon can be demoralizing. He seemed visibly upset when he left the pitch, which is understandable given the high hopes he had for his return. It can be really tough for athletes when their bodies don’t cooperate as they would like.
**Interviewer:** There’s speculation that this could impact his return to the national team for the World Cup qualifiers. What are the implications of this injury on his international career?
**Jose Silva:** If this injury is indeed muscular, we might see Neymar miss the upcoming matches against Venezuela and Uruguay. That would be a blow not just for him, but for the Brazilian squad, which has been counting on his experience and skill. It’s crucial for the coach, Dorival Junior, to reassess the situation based on Neymar’s recovery progress.
**Interviewer:** Given his history with injuries, do you think Neymar should adjust his playing style to avoid such situations in the future?
**Jose Silva:** That’s a tough question. Players like Neymar thrive on their agility and explosiveness, which are fundamental to their game. However, it might be wise for him to adapt slightly, maybe by being more cautious during tackles or taking fewer risks in certain situations. Ultimately, it’s about finding a balance between his natural style and ensuring he remains healthy.
**Interviewer:** Looking ahead, what can Al-Hilal do in the meantime without him?
**Jose Silva:** Al-Hilal has a deep squad with talented players, so the focus should be on maintaining their form. They need to rally together, perhaps give more responsibility to players who can step up in Neymar’s absence. It’ll be a test of depth and team cohesion for them.
**Interviewer:** Thank you, Jose, for your insights on this evolving story. We hope for a swift recovery for Neymar.
**Jose Silva:** Thank you! Let’s hope for the best for him and that we see him back on the pitch soon.
