Brazil Worried as Raphinha Leaves World Cup Match Injured

Center
Translated & summarized from N12 by baba
The story · English

Brazil were left concerned after star winger Raphinha was forced off during the night match against Haiti in the second round of Group 3 at the 2026 World Cup. The Barcelona player stopped in the 40th minute after feeling something in a muscle and walked off on his own, suggesting a possible muscle injury.

Raphinha was replaced by Ryan of Bournemouth and received support from his Brazil teammates as he left the pitch. The extent of the injury is still unclear, and there is no firm estimate yet on whether he can recover in time to return during the tournament.

He is now considered a major doubt for Brazil’s match against Scotland on Thursday. The report also notes that the Brazilian playmaker has already missed more than 100 days this season because of various injuries.
