Neymar was in tears after being taken off the field on a stretcher with an apparent left knee injury during Brazil\u2019s 2-0 defeat to Uruguay in World Cup qualifying.<\/p>\n

Brazil were trailing to a Darwin Nunez opener when Neymar landed awkwardly after colliding with Nicolas de la Cruz just before half-time.<\/p>\n

The 31-year-old former Barcelona forward, who joined Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal from Paris St Germain in the summer, was carried off in some distress as he cupped his hands to his face.<\/p>\n

After De la Cruz made sure of Uruguay\u2019s win, Neymar was reportedly seen leaving the Estadio Centenario in Montevideo on crutches.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s hope it\u2019s nothing serious,\u201d Brazil captain and Manchester United midfielder Casemiro said on Globo television.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s an important player for us, we\u2019re very fond of him. He\u2019s been suffering a lot from injuries and when he starts to pick up the pace he gets injured again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Lionel Messi became the all-time leading scorer in South American World Cup qualifying as he bagged a brace in Argentina\u2019s 2-0 victory over Peru.<\/p>\n

Messi\u2019s 31 goals take him clear of former Barcelona team-mate and Uruguay forward Luis Suarez, who has 29. Argentina top the qualifying table having won all four fixtures.<\/p>\n
