Neymar loss does not make Brazil weak: Ronaldo

Sunday, 6 July 2014


The two-time World Cup winner believes the Selecao will be just as strong without the 22-year-old in their ranks and has slammed the foul which injured him. Brazil legend Ronaldo has told Germany that the loss of Neymar will not make Luiz Felipe Scolari's side any weaker when the two sides meet on Tuesday, reports goal.com. The Barcelona forward was stretchered off in the closing stages of his team's quarter-final victory over Colombia and was promptly ruled out of the remainder of the tournament with a back injury. However, Ronaldo, twice a World Cup winner himself, believes that his nation will be able to cope just fine without the 22-year-old in the upcoming semi-final tie with Joachim Low's side, according to a news agency.
