247 - In his first match after the World Cup, Neymar was sent off in the game between Paris Saint-Germain and Strasbourg, this Wednesday (28). 

The Brazilian star received two yellow cards in one minute. In the first play, Neymar put his hand on an opponent's face and received a yellow card. In the second, he entered the penalty area with the ball and threw himself to the ground after being approached by a defender.

Internet users accused the referee on Twitter of persecuting the striker. In the same match, Neymar received a slap similar to the one he delivered. 

Neymar will serve a suspension in the match against Lens, on Sunday, the first day of 2023. He is only expected to return to play next Friday (6), against Châteauroux in the French Cup.
