BASKING RIDGE, United States (AFP) â Brazil coach Carlo Ancelotti said Neymar is unhappy he has had such a limited role at the World Cup but has handled the situation professionally and remains a positive influence within the squad.
The countryâs all-time leading goal scorer has made just one substitute appearance at his fourth World Cup, playing the final 14 minutes of Brazilâs 3-0 win over Scotland in the group stage.
Neymar, 34, is again likely to be on the bench for Sundayâs last-16 match against Norway at MetLife Stadium.
