Neymar out 4 weeks, say PSG

PSG striker Neymar will be out for four weeks with a hamstring injury he suffered playing for Brazil, the French club said on Monday. Neymar limped off in the 12th minute on Sunday as Brazil drew 1-1 against Nigeria in a friendly. PSG said an MRI scan showed that their star player had suffered “a grade two lesion” in his left hamstring. If he is out until November 11, Neymar will miss four French league matches, including a trip to Marseille on October 17, and home and away Champions League games against Bruges. Earlier, Brazil manager Tite defended his decision to play Neymar, saying he was not at risk of injury before the match. “It  would be irresponsible and incompetent of me [to play him if he was a doubt]. I would have to receive the complaints of the coach and the president of PSG if that happened.”
