Costa to exit World Cup?

Douglas Costa could miss the rest of Brazil’s World Cup campaign as the Juventus winger reportedly faces three weeks out.

ANSA cites reports in the Russian Press, which suggest Costa’s thigh injury could rule him out of the rest of the tournament.

It is claimed the former Bayern Munich ace felt a twinge during his second-half appearance against Costa Rica but carried on playing, even assisting Neymar for Brazil’s second goal in a 2-0 win.

Selecao boss Tite has since confirmed that the 27-year-old will not feature in the nation’s final group game against Serbia on Wednesday.
