It was a violent incident for which the culprit was not even called for a foul, let alone punished with a card
Barcelona star Neymar received a brutal elbow during Brazil's win over Bolivia in the South American World Cup qualifiers. Neymar scored the game's opening goal and was booked in an eventful match, but it ended for him after this violent incident.
68 minutes into the game Yasmani Duk elbowed Neymar in the head. The referee did not signal a foul, while Neymar was left on the turf. Brazil were 4-0 up. Two minutes later, with the Brazilian forward covered in blood and being treated by the medics, Brazil coach Titi decided to take him off.
