The Brazilian national team had to speed up Neymar's rehabilitation process, but their coach Tite denies that the star's health is being jeopardized.
The forward suffered a serious injury in a "Ligue 1" match against "Marseille" back in February, and for a long time there were doubts whether he could go to Russia.
The 26-year-old footballer is participating in the World Cup, but in the first match against the Swiss, he did not show his best game, and the opponents committed 10 fouls against him.
"No, no. He suffered a knock, but we are following the initial plan. He was off the field for three and a half months and recently played his first 90 minutes," - Tite replied when asked if Neymar's recent injury in training could cause trouble.
"There is science and we feel calm about it. It takes about five matches to fully get back in shape, and he has already accelerated the process."
"That evolution is happening. Don't worry."
The coach of the Brazilian national team also confirmed that for the second match against Costa Rica they will maintain the same starting lineup. So Neymar will be in it.
