Danilo was forced off during Brazil's clash with Argentina after the Manchester City full-back suffered a suspected ankle injury.
Danilo was forced off during Brazil's clash with Argentina after the Manchester City full-back suffered a suspected ankle injury.
Brazil coach Tite opted to pick Danilo ahead of Alex Sandro for Tuesday's Superclasico in Jeddah, as first-choice right-back Dani Alves continues his recovery from a serious knee injury.
But less than 10 minutes into the second half of the game, Danilo saw his evening come to a premature end.
Tracking back in order to stop a dangerous incursion from Argentina striker Mauro Icardi, the City man went over heavily on his ankle as he conceded a corner.
Danilo received brief treatment on the pitch before Tite ordered the substitution, with the defender in visible pain.
Juventus' Alex Sandro was called in, while Danilo was able to limp off the pitch unaided.
Instead of retiring from the stadium, the defender stayed on the bench with his team-mates, applying ice to the injured ankle.
City will now be hoping that their full-back has avoided serious damage to the joint, with a sprain likely to rule the Brazilian out for at least a couple of weeks.
Pep Guardiola's men are back in action on Saturday at home to Burnley, before travelling to Ukraine three days later in order to face Shakhtar Donetsk.

Wasted his Career at City. Will no doubt be branded a flop in the near future. Should have gone to a team where he could have started and maybe with more regular playtime would have avoided injury as his body gets used to performing. But since he isn't used to high speed level of football, his body becomes frail to the nature of the game. Waste of talent, as a former Real player he could have gone to any club and he chose the club where they use a rotation system that can be a risk to players performances....
You talked with a lot of envy, you've made no point.

First of all I m not giving him advice . I'm a just giving my opinion . Danilo is a good player . I m just want him to keep fit . He is young . if he can stay fit he will surely able to replace alves is Brazil team . It will be good replacement for this RB position.

Whatever you have done yesterday had cost you too much, don't do such things again... You are commenting ridiculous things so that you may get likes to your name by the haters... While it is costing you almost your everything, Your respect[Sadtolook]... I don't want anyone to abuse anyone, especially you... So

I can't remember when he able to finish a full game without injury . How can he be so unfit? He should focus on his fitness
