Submitted by ub on

Brazil's Neymar got kneed in the back as a result of dirty play by Colombia's Juan Camilo Zuniga.

The Brazilian star will now miss the rest of the World Cup. Neymar was taken off on a stretcher in the 88th minute of Brazil's 2-1 win over Colombia. Nobody likes a poor loser.

Neymar was immediately taken to a local hospital in a tremendous amount of pain and a short time later, Brazil's team doctor confirmed that he will miss the remainder of the World Cup with a fractured vertebrae.

Colombia defender Juan Zuniga now says he did not deliberately try to hurt Brazil forward Neymar when he kneed him in the back on Friday. Take a look and you decide if you believe him.
