In the World Cup qualifying match against Paraguay, Vinicius Junior was forced to leave the field early.
Details: With a narrow victory over Paraguay, Carlo Ancelotti's men have secured their spot in the upcoming World Cup.
Thanks to Vinicius' goal in the 44th minute, Brazilian fans could breathe a brief sigh of relief, but just 30 minutes later, anxiety returned.
In the 75th minute, one of the key leaders of the Seleção, Vinicius Junior, felt discomfort in his left hamstring and was substituted in the 78th minute, ending his night early in a match that remained tightly contested.
Until that moment, fans of both Brazil and Real Madrid were deeply concerned about the severity of the young winger's injury and worried about his availability for the upcoming fixtures. However, it appears the scare was minor: Vinicius now has a strong chance to play at the Club World Cup, as the injury turned out to be not serious.
It's expected that Vini will be back in action in just a week!
Reminder: Ancelotti's chewing gum count overshadowed his Brazil national team debut
