Paris Saint-Germain star Neymar faces a UEFA hearing having been charged for the comments he made in the wake of PSG’s Champions League defeat by Manchester United.
United completed the most remarkable of comebacks to knock the Ligue 1 side out of Europe, with Romelu Lukaku netting a brace before Marcus Rashford scored a winner from the penalty spot to send the Red Devils through to the quarter-finals on the away goals rule.

Neymar was stuck on the sidelines for both legs of PSG’s Champions League round of 16 tie
Neymar, the Brazil international, was unavailable for the match through injury, but was visibly angered on the sidelines when United were awarded their injury-time spot kick after a lengthy VAR (video assistant referee) review.
After watching replays of the incident, referee Damir Skomina judged that Presnel Kimpembe handled the ball inside PSG’s area as he jumped to block Diogo Dalot’s speculative long-range effort.

The decision was a contentious one, and Neymar clearly believed it was incorrect – and he expressed his anger in no uncertain terms on social media.
“This is a disgrace,” he wrote. “They put 4 people that know nothing about football in charge of looking at the replay for VAR.
“There is no penalty. How can it be a handball when it hits his back! Go f*** yourselves!”

It was confirmed earlier this month that Neymar faced a UEFA probe into his comments, and European football’s governing body had decided to charge the 27-year-old.
A UEFA statement read: “Charges against Paris St Germain: Player Neymar Junior – Insulting / molesting acts against match official (statements made by the player following the above-mentioned match) – Art. 15 (1) (d) of the UEFA Disciplinary Regulations.”
Neymar could be hit with a ban of one to three matches as a punishment.
