Brazil waits for Neymar's return ahead of World Cup match against S Korea

Whether Neymar is in the lineup, on the bench or resting for a third consecutive game will depend on how he performs in Brazil's last training session ahead of the team's match against South Korea on Monday in the round of 16 at the World Cup. The Brazil forward missed two group matches after injuring his right ankle in the team's opening win over Serbia. He was back training with teammates on Saturday, but it remains unclear whether he's fit enough to play against South Korea. He will train this afternoon, and if he trains well, he will play, Brazil coach Tite said ahead of the team's practice session on Sunday. Tite said he planned to use Neymar from the opening whistle instead of as a substitute if he's healthy enough to play. I prefer to use my best player from the start, Tite said. It's the coach who has to make that decision and take on that responsibility. Brazil struggled without the playmaker but still won its group despite a loss to Cameroon in the last match. Obviously

Neymar's trial concluded on Monday with the company that accused him of fraud and corruption reducing the prison sentence it sought for the player's alleged involvement in irregularities related to his transfer from Santos to Barcelona in 2013.

Messi sets up 2 goals as leader PSG wins 3-0; Lens, Marseille win

Lionel Messi's vision was too much for Toulouse as he set up goals for Neymar and Kylian Mbapp in French league leader Paris Saint-Germain's 3-0 win at Toulouse. Four touches were enough for PSG to open up Toulouse's defense for the first goal in the 37th minute, with Messi applying the final pass to give Neymar his league-leading seventh goal in just five games.

PSG's MNM attack of Messi-Neymar-Mbapp has combined for 15 of PSG's 21 goals in five games. It would have been more but Dup made nine saves. Promoted Toulouse held out until the 39th minute. The goal was slick one-touch soccer with midfielder Marco Verratti and Mbapp exchanging passes before Messi's first-time pass behind the defense allowed Neymar space to guide the ball under Dup. The goal was given following a video review when replays showed Neymar was onside as the in-form Bra
