NEW JERSEY: Brazil midfielder Lucas Paquetá, who limped off the field at halftime during his team’s last World Cup match, has a thigh injury. Paquetá was replaced for the start of the second half in Monday’s 2-1 win over Japan. Brazil advanced to a round of 16 match against Norway on Sunday at East Rutherford, New Jersey. The Brazilian soccer confederation said Tuesday the 28-year-old Paquetá had a scan that revealed a muscle injury at the back of a thigh. Paquetá has 13 goals in 67 international appearances.
