Hotel mattress could have caused Marcelo injury

Brazil are keeping their fingers crossed that Marcelo will be fit to face Mexico after going off with a shoulder injury in the final group stage game against Serbia, that could have been caused by sleeping badly.

It is not a serious injury but still he is a doubt with the team doctor saying after the Serbia game on Wednesday that it would be necessary to wait up to 48 hours to know the extent of the problem.”Maybe the mattress on which he was sleeping in Moscow was softer and this can cause a back problem, we will see how it progresses,” it was stated by the doctor.
