The Juventus winger will not travel to Moscow for Wednesday’s game which will be decisive for both teams. Brazil top the group and will qualify with a draw but the five-times world champion could go out if they lose to the Serbs.
“At the end of the game yesterday Douglas Costa complained of a pain in the back of his right thigh,” doctor Rodrigo Lasmar told reporters. “Exams showed he has a slight muscle injury, a diagnosis confirmed today by a magnetic resonance scan.”
