Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti has confirmed that star forward Neymar is finally fit enough to feature for a full 90 minutes at the World Cup. The Italian tactician also admitted that the country's all-time leading goalscorer is deeply unhappy with his restricted substitute role.

The 34-year-old forward has endured a frustrating campaign, registering just a single 14-minute cameo off the bench during the group stage victory over Scotland. Ancelotti praised Neymar's maturity despite his bench role, stating: "He is not happy, but he is behaving very well. He is training very well. Neymar is highly respectful, amiable, and loved by his teammates." capturengo.com
