The striker for the national team sobbed uncontrollably as he was carried off the field on a stretcher and accompanied by medical workers to the dressing room after he was injured.

Neymar, a striker for the Brazilian national team, suffered an injury on Tuesday while playing against Uruguay in Montevideo. As a result of his injury, Neymar needed to be replaced prior to the halfway break. Player number 10, who had suffered a knee injury, was carried off the field on a stretcher while pleading for Richarlison to be permitted to enter the game. Richarlison was eventually given permission to participate.

After colliding with the Uruguayan player De La Cruz, the striker for Selec felt pain in his knee as he entered the field. De La Cruz was from the opposing team. The impact had caused a twisting injury to the knee, which had to be treated immediately. After being taken off the field on a stretcher, the medical staff for the Brazilian national team brought Neymar into the locker area of the stadium so that he could receive treatment for his injury.

Just a few minutes after Darwin Nez scored the first goal for Uruguay at the Estadio Centenário in Montevideo, Neymar went down with an injury and needed medical attention.

When Brazil played Nigeria in October 2019, it was the most recent time that Neymar was removed off the pitch early in the second half of a match for Brazil. After 11 minutes, he was removed off the field for some reason.
