Brazil forward Neymar is ruled out of Brazil’s next World Cup match against Haiti due to a lingering calf injury. The 34-year-old suffered the calf problem after being named in Brazil’s World Cup squad and has not played since. According to reporting from multiple outlets, Neymar missed Brazil’s opening match against Morocco, which ended in a 1-1 draw. With Haiti approaching, Brazil must proceed without him in the match. The injury is described consistently as a calf issue that continues to affect him, leading to his absence from the Haiti game. No replacement details are provided in the sources summarized here, and the available information centers on his current unavailability rather than a specific return timeline. The situation underscores that Neymar’s fitness has not recovered sufficiently from the calf injury since his initial inclusion in the World Cup squad. Brazil’s lineup and attacking options for the Haiti fixture therefore change in Neymar’s absence.
