NEYMAR BLASTED THE controversial video call that saw Paris Saint-Germain crash out of the Champions League in dramatic fashion against Manchester United.
The officials handed the visitors a penalty in stoppage time after a shot by Diego Dalot hit the arm of Presnel Kimpembe, which prompted a review by VAR.
“That is a disgrace!” Neymar wrote on his Instagram Stories alongside a screenshot of the alleged handball.
“And Uefa still pick four guys who know nothing about football to review the VAR decision in slow motion… that handball simply doesn’t exist!
“How do you handball behind your back? Ahh… go f*ck yourselves.”
PSG were moments away from eliminating United and booking their place in the quarter-finals with a 3-2 lead on aggregate before the late drama, with Marcus Rashford holding his nerve to send Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and visitors into ecstasy.

Not even a United supporter but Neymar…this is the tiny bit of karma that needs to avalanche your way pal!!
Controversial in fairness. But I looks as though neymar is again showing his narcissism. The rules stat that for it to not be deemed hand ball in the box you have to make sure that your hand stays out of the way of the ball. It’s not the old rule of ball to hand anymore. The changed it when defenders like John Terry were coming out spread eagled and the ball was hitting their hand rather that them moving their hand to the ball. When the PSG player jumped up his hand flew out so he didn’t take appropriate care therefore it was a controversial but correct call. I think the referee showed real balls giving it.
@domas1507: so are players meant to tuck their arms inside their jerseys before they jump now? Ridiculous
@Ruairi Doyle: as I said its harsh but by the letter of the law, which the referee has to use when viewing an incident again , it’s a penalty.
@domas1507: here’s the thing,to see the players intention look where his second hand is. He’s deliberately using his arms to make himself bigger
The only disgrace last night was Neymars poor attempt at a George Michael costume.
@Hugh Jass: his earrings looked amazing. He’s really cool.
I have to hand it to Neymar. He’s a great man at uniting the football world. Fans of all clubs all over the world seem to come together in undeniable joy when the w@nker feels aggrieved.
What would be great craic now would be if he got a ban for this little cry he’s having online.
@Nollaig Elliot: is
Babymar at it again, it doesn’t matter if your back is turned if you jump in front of a shot with you arms out it’s a penalty.
@Brendan Boyce: “a disgrace” I’m surprised he knows the meaning of the word… Maybe he should take a very long look at himself the next time he’s rolling around on the ground looking to get players booked.
@Brendan Boyce: Dundalk v Legia Warsaw, August 2016 at the Aviva. Andy Boyle penalised for nearly similar offence…. Penalty decision.
No VAR then.
There appears to be consistency.
The irony of someone like Neymar coming out with this drivel is astounding, someone who spends so much time diving and trying to get players sent off.. Karma
What does neymar know about calling a legit hand a disgrace when every opportunity he gets to win a free or peno he jumps to the ground. He will never be a messi or ronaldo.
Definitely not a United fan but Karma was served last night irregardless if it was a penalty or not (VAR is a joke anyway) as PSG went into this game expecting to hammer United as was obvious in their approach to the game from the off! The showboating and disrespect PSG showed towards their opponents in the opening stages was disgraceful!! Fair play United and especially Ole! Brilliant result for football!
Not a united supporter but I’d lean towards giving the penalty too. Its not clear cut, the shot was clearly going over, but there was no attempt by the defender to keep his arms tucked in. However I think that Neymar deserves to have to book thrown at him for this little outburst. He is the definition of spoilt primadonna.
@Ger: when you jump it’s almost impossible to keep your arms tucked in. When your trying to get height/distance your arms are naturally going to come out to give yourself extra momentum. For me, it was no penalty. People who say it was are quoting a rule that is being proposed for next year. But I’m delighted PSG are out, they would be a much bigger threat than MU in this.
If he had of been on the pitch last night we would of been guaranteed a few oscar worthy dives and a few rolls pot calling the kettle black here
No Nay Never, Neymar.
He’s right but out of all people he can’t be complaining he’s got a fair few decisions his way
Hilarious seeing him calling for a penalty for Cavani jumping onto I think it was Shaw’s back
Never been happier seen United win than when the camera panned onto your horrid little face, i actually went to bed breaking my sht laughing. Nobody likes this horrible con artist do they. Pity, considering how talented he is. Hopefully a nice ban now, he belongs back in 1 of the favellas he came from.
Didn’t think it was a penalty. Delighted United went through though, and all the better seeing Neymar have a tantrum about it.
Go cry some more Jr
If they had got it would he still be saying “Go f**k yourselves”? It was harsh, but they are the rules, ref only going by them, fair play to him, could have folded with home crowd and players against him. Strong character.
