Neymar suffered an ankle injury in Brazil's game against Serbia on Thursday night His ankle was badly swollen after the match, but he has not been ruled out of the World Cup Raphinha has shared an Instagram post claiming Neymar does not get the same respect from fans as Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo Raphinha has hinted that some Brazil supporters may have been hoping for Neymar to be ruled out completely by re-sharing a post claiming that the forward doesn't get the same recognition from fans as Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Raphinha has hinted that his team-mate Neymar deserves more respect from Brazilians The 30-year-old has scored 75 goals for his country, leaving him just two adrift of Brazil's all-time top goalscorer, Pele. Brazil are well-placed to get out of their group, though, after their opening game win, meaning Neymar may get the chance to come back into the team and earn the respect of the fans by playing a significant role in their bid for a sixth World Cup triumph.
