Colombia’s Juan Zuniga has not only seemingly become the most vilified man in Brazil after ending Neymar’s World Cup – but the defender has also become the target for abuse and anger on Twitter.
Zuniga kneed the 22-year-old in the back towards the end of the
quarter-final tie in Fortaleza on Friday, which resulted in Neymar being
stretchered off the field in tears.
Team doctor, Rodrigo Lasma, later revealed that the Barcelona forward
would miss the rest of the tournament with a fractured vertebra but
wouldn’t require surgery for the injury.
