Sao Paulo (Brazil) –\u00a0 The injury that has sidelined Brazilian forward, Neymar da Silva Santos J\u00fanior, is causing grief to President Dilma Rousseff and many Brazilians, and they are not hiding it.<\/p>\n

President Rousseff had conveyed her feelings on the injury sustained by the Brazilian goal scorer, popularly known as Neymar or Neymar Jr, to the entire country via a letter released to the media.<\/p>\n

\"Injured<\/a><\/p>\n

She said: \u201cIt broke my heart and the heart of every Brazilian watching the pain on your face on the Castel\u00e3o field.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

It would be recalled that Neymar Jr got injured on Friday during the Brazil-Columbia quarter final match at which Brazil won 2-1.<\/p>\n

The president adds: \u201cBut we also saw the immense strength of a great warrior, who will never let himself be held back even when wounded.<\/p>\n

\u201cA great warrior who briefly interrupts his march, having already left his insurmountable mark on the victorious battle our Sele\u00e7\u00e3o is fighting.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know that, like every Brazilian, you will never give up, and sooner than one can imagine, you will be back to fill our souls with joy and our history with triumph.<\/p>\n

\u201cMay God give you strength and always protect you,\u2019\u2019 Rousseff was quoted as saying.<\/p>\n

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that that the star player was badly tackled from behind, which left him seriously wounded.<\/p>\n

The injury has effectively ruled him out of the ongoing World Cup. The Brazilians are bound to miss their most outstanding player in the line up,<\/p>\n

However, in spite of his absence, jersey with his name inscribed had continued to fetch millions into the coffers of Brazil Football Federation.<\/p>\n

Neymar Jr., who plays for Spanish club FC Barcelona in La Liga, was born on Feb. 5, 1992, is on a salary: 8.8 million EUR and had since been flown into Sao Paulo for medical attention. (NAN)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
