Morristown (USA), June 17: Neymar was back on the training field, returning to action for the first time since he joined Brazil’s World Cup squad while nursing an injured right leg.
Neymar still wasn’t at full speed, though, and did mostly physical conditioning at the team’s training camp outside New York. He had undergone tests on his right calf on Monday to determine the progress of the injury that he sustained while playing with Brazilian club Santos on May 17.
The 34-year-old Neymar, playing at his fourth World Cup, has yet to join the rest of the squad in full training sessions during the team’s preparations.
He is not expected to play in Brazil’s match against Haiti on Friday. (AP)
