The Brazilian coach highlighted the attitude of the megastar of his team, who was injured with a sprained ankle, and assured that he will play once more in this World Cup.
“Precisely in relation to Neymar I want to make a technical observation. He stayed on the field feeling pain in his ankle because the team needed it. He had the ability to overcome his pain to help the team,” said Tite.
The PSG striker tried to stay on the pitch until he was replaced by Antony with 10 minutes remaining.
The DT also left a sentence that sounded like an expression of desire: “I’m sure he’ll play in the World Cup, I’m absolutely sure of that. He’s going to play in the Cup.”
