Nigeria draw 1-1 against Brazil in an International Friendly, Neymar gets injured, limps out of friendly (Video)

The Super Eagles of Nigeria have drawn 1-1 against Brazil in an international friendly in Singapore on Sunday afternoon.

Joe Aribo scored in the 34th minute to gift the Super Eagles the lead, sending Nigerians into euphoria.

However, Brazil were soon level shortly after the interval when Casemiro stabbed home the rebound after Maquinhos had headed off the woodwork, following a corner kick in the 48th minute.

Neymar could be set for a spell on the sidelines after Brazil forward limped out of the Selecao’s friendly with Nigeria, MySportDab reports.

The Paris Saint-Germain star lasted just 12 minutes of the international friendly in Singapore before suffering an injury to his left thigh.

He was pictured icing the injury once he made his way to the bench, suggesting the world’s most expensive footballer may have to miss matches over the next few weeks.

Neymar has already spent time out out of the PSG team this season, with the 27-year-old left out by Thomas Tuchel as he resolved his future during the opening weeks of the campaign.

He will likely require tests to assess the severity of his current injury, but he faces a race against time to be fit for Friday’s clash with Nice as domestic football returns following the international break.
