According to reports, Neymar spent 5 minutes on the ground as the medical team attended to him with tension growing among his teammates and coaching staff.

Neymar was able to return to his feet and continued the training later on as the technical team monitored his performance at training.

The Selecao have been training in Paris-France ahead of the game and have been busy for the last three days.
