FIFA is singled out as the culprit of messi and neymar's injuries so the players would make a drastic decision for their future in the Qualifiers

Lionel Messi and Neymar are in doubt for the first match of this new date of the qualifying rounds for the Qatar 2022 World Cup. Although Messi still has opportunities to play with the Argentine team against Paraguay, Neymar is very difficult to arrive for the match between Brazil and Venezuela. Messi has a problem in one of his ankles, while Neymar in one of his legs.

Why accuse FIFA of being one of those responsible for the many injuries suffered by soccer players today? The answer is simple. Today, because of the great stop that occurred as a result of Covid 19, many calendars were adjusted and games are played much more often than before. To the internal competitions, the continental cups, the fifas dates were also added, so that the players play every few days.

In addition to Messi and Neymar, there are other players who complained about this problem and that are why their continuity with those selected is in danger. The problem is that teams will begin to try to retain their players, especially when they are friendly matches. A clear example is in Eden Hazard who did not travel with the Belgian team due to a positive Covid assumption, although from Belgium they suspect his result.

In this way, the Argentine team will have to wait until the last minute to know if Lionel Messi can play against Paraguay. On the other hand, the Brazilian team already knows that against Venezuela they will not be able to count on Neymar. Both the Brazilian team and Argentina share the first place in the table of positions of the qualifiers for Qatar 2022 of CONMEBOL.
