You will not believe what Neymar said after Manchester United dumped PSG out of Champions League

Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar Junior has expressed his frustration with the late penalty decision that led to his side being knocked out of the Champions League by Manchester United.


Referee Damir Skomina consulted VAR before deciding to award United a penalty after Diogo Dalot’s effort struck PSG defender Presnel Kimpembe on the arm. Marcus Rashford stepped up to score the resultant spot-kick, with United winning 3-1 on the night and prevailing on away goals after the tie finished 3-3.


Neymar, who wasn’t able to feature due to a foot injury, was left livid by the decision and was seen expressing his anger on the touchline in the closing stages of the game.


The Brazil international then took to Instagram to hit out at Skomina’s decision, claiming that he and the other officials involved ‘do not understand football’.


Neymar wrote: ‘This is shameful! And they still let 4 guys that do not understand football look at the slow motion video, this doesn’t happen! How is he going to take his hand out when he’s on his back! Oh go f*** yourself.’


PSG were also knocked out of the Champions League at the last-16 stage by Real Madrid last season. Neymar’s side are still set to win Ligue 1 at a canter and also have a chance of glory in the Coupe de France.


However, it is the Champions League in which they wanted to prevail the most, in order to demonstrate how far they have progressed. PSG went into the game with a two-goal lead from the first leg, but United got a goal early on through Romelu Lukaku.


Juan Bernat scored for PSG to make it 1-1 on the night before Lukaku got his second in the 30th minute. It was Rashford’s late penalty that proved to decisive, and Neymar certainly wasn’t pleased with the decision.

Coronavirus: 'The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing'

"The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing," says Andrew O'Dwyer, who is recovering after being infected with the new coronavirus following a skiing trip to Italy in late February. "I've had worse flu, without a doubt - but I wouldn't want to catch it again," he says during his self-isolation at home in south-west London. Despite having type 1 diabetes, Andrew says having the virus "isn't anything to worry about for me personally". He adds that the fever he experienced is "no different to normal flu-type symptoms". "I've not been concerned," he says. The severity of symptoms can vary widely among people. Those who are older and have pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) are more likely to become severely ill and can need hospital treatment. There have been 10 coronavirus-related deaths so far in the UK. Andrew was told the virus wasn't circulating in the resort ...

Babajide made a Stunning Revelation about the Forthcoming Governorship Election in Edo State

Babajide a veteran journalist, while speaking on the popular program “Journalist Hangout” on TVC news Friday August 7, made a stunning revelation about the forthcoming governorship election in Edo state, says all political parties should shown violence because election is not a do or die affair. Babajide while reacting said “ I have to say I have my fears about these forthcoming election, and I hope my fears does not come past. As we can see the shenanigans in Edo state it is now visible that it is no more Oshiomole against Obaseki, it is now PDP against APC which could be devastating in the light of the politics going on now. Obaseki himself divided the APC, because all the lawmakers in Edo state belong to the APC but he divided them by inaugurating some lawmakers, and refusing to inaugurate others. Right now as it stands 17 lawmakers have decided to align with the APC and just 7 lawmakers is with the Governor. For me I think Obaseki should have averted these problem by just issuing a...
