Neymar given four-match ban

Neymar is issued with a four-match ban following his red card in Brazil's defeat by Colombia.

Neymar will miss the remainder of Brazil's Copa America campaign after being slapped with a four-match ban.

The Brazil forward was shown a straight red card in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat by Colombia following a brawl with Jeison Murillo - who scored the winning goal - and Carlos Bacca.

Consequently, the 23-year-old will sit out the next four games as punishment - along with a £6,000 fine - in a sanction that dents the Selecao's hopes of lifting the trophy.

All four teams in Group C - along with Peru, Venezuela and Colombia - have three points, with Dunga's men currently top ahead of the final game.

They resume their campaign by facing Venezuela on Sunday.
