LIVE: Without Neymar, Brazil Takes on Switzerland at World Cup

Brazil’s attacking depth has been celebrated in the build-up to the World Cup, and now we’ll all find out just how deep that attack is.

As Neymar recovers from an ankle injury suffered against Serbia, Brazil returns to action against Switzerland, with both sides knowing that if there’s a victor, it will punch its ticket to the knockout stage of the competition.

Neymar was heavily involved in Brazil’s tournament-opening win, but it was Richarlison who stole the headlines, with his two-goal performance punctuated by an acrobatic finish that will be hard-pressed to top for goal of the tournament.
