World Soccer News: Neymar Júnior, Luis Suarez Back To Training At Nou Camp Stadium After Difficult Exit From Brazil World Cup 2014. World Cup stars and world class forwards Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior and Luis Suarez playing for Barcelona have returned the pitch after controversial exits during the Brazil World Cup. Luis Suarez was given a 9-game ban after biting a defending, a practice he had used earlier on the pitch. Another world class player dubbed ‘the new-Pele’, Neymar Junior returned to Barcelona after a brutal attack by a Columbian player to his back, causing an injury to his vertebrae.


Neymar was named captain for the friendly against Columbia, making him the youngest captain in Brazil’s history. Minutes after he was given a go ahead for game play at Barcelona, Neymar was on the pitch and showing no hesitation as a forward assisted in a goal for Argentina’s player of the year and scored two goals himself. The final score was a bombshell for Mexican side Club Leon and a 6-0 victory for Barcelona in a preseason friendly.


Neymar developed an injury to his ankle ahead of the Leon match Suarez was recently transferred from Liverpool to Barca for a hefty $100 million and he is under pressure to earn the top dollar value that Barcelona paid for him. He is relieved to be back in training and scored two goals in a friendly.


News reports say that Suarez felt he was tormented in the backlash of the biting incidents. But he was banned earlier for the same problem, and FIFA asked that he get help before playing. However, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) felt that another ban keeping him from all football-related activities was too harsh. As a result, he is in good form during Barcelona’s training and special friendly matches have been set up for him to back on track.


Suarez also said in interview posted in a Reuters news article, "The truth is that you suffer a lot," adding, "It gives you a feeling of impotence not being able to do anything from the outside except talk and shout.
