AFP, Rio De Janeiro :
Brazil’s attacking midfielder Willian will miss Sunday’s Copa America final against either champions Chile or Peru after injuring his hamstring, the tournament hosts said on Wednesday.
The 30-year-old Chelsea player was a second half substitute in Brazil’s 2-0 semi-final victory over arch rivals Argentina, coming on for winger Everton.
A Brazil football federation (CBF) spokesman said Willian had felt “pain in his hamstring” and was sent for tests on Wednesday afternoon where it was found that he had a “pulled muscle.”
