Neymar To Face South Korea, Says Tite

Brazil national team coach Tite has said his team star player Neymar will be fit for Selecao’s Round of 16 clash against South Korea.

The South American nation will battle South Korea for a place in the quarter-finals at the Stadium 974, Doha on Monday night (today).

The 30-year-old has missed Brazil’s last two games against Switzerland and Senegal.

Neymar has however returned to training with his teammates, with Tite confirming he is fit enough to play.

Tite said: “He will train this afternoon, and if he trains well, he will play. He had a specific training program. I don’t want to get ahead of myself, I don’t give out information that isn’t true. Throughout my career I have always had credibility. He will train, and if he is well, he will play. I won’t say anything about the other 10 players.”
