In the middle of Brazil’s tour of Australia, Raphinha’s evening brought both a goal and an unwelcome interruption. The Barcelona winger scored against Australia before feeling discomfort in his right thigh and did not return for the second half.
The news from the club
Raphinha has suffered a right-thigh problem after finding the net in Brazil’s match with Australia. His withdrawal at half-time means he will miss Brazil’s final friendly of the trip, scheduled for Saturday in India.
The setback leaves the forward out of the last stop on the international itinerary after a match in which his contribution had already included a goal.
