The Brazil star Neymar has been ruled out of the FIFA world cup due to fractured vertebra. The star footballer was back kneed in the back during the second half game in a collision with a Colombian player,Juan Zuniga. Neymar who rolled on the ground after he was hit cried out in sharp pain.
The team doctor Rodriguez Lasmar who spoke on the FIFA OFFICIAL WEBSITE said, "It's not serious in the sense that it doesn't need surgery, but he'll need to immobilise it to recover," Lasmar said. "Unfortunately, he's not going to be able to play."
Lasmar expects the recovery time to be at least a few weeks, ruling Neymar out of Tuesday's semi-final against Germany.
The host country Brazil did win in their game against Colombia(2-1) despite Neymar's absence. Brazil would be facing Germany on Tuesday.
