Marcano, the Brazilian striker who has been in fine form for FC Porto this season, has been ruled out of Brazil's World Cup campaign due to an ankle injury.

The news comes as a blow to Brazil, who were already without key players like Neymar and Casemiro due to injuries. Marcano's absence will be a significant loss for Brazil, especially given their recent success at the club level.

The 24-year-old striker has scored six goals in just seven games for Porto this season, including four goals in the Champions League. He is also a regular member of Brazil's national team, having made over 50 appearances for his country so far.

Despite the setback, Brazil still have plenty of talented players capable of stepping up and filling Marcano's shoes. The likes of Ederson Moraes,Ligue 1 Focus Gabriel Jesus, and Vinicius Junior could all step into the captaincy and take on more responsibility.

However, it remains to be seen whether Brazil can overcome the loss of such a crucial player. Marcano's absence will undoubtedly affect their chances of reaching the knockout stages of the tournament, but they will certainly remain competitive.

In conclusion, Marcano's injury is a major setback for Brazil, but the squad will still be strong enough to compete in the World Cup. However, it will be interesting to see how they adapt to the loss of such a key player.
