Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar: 'My red card was unfair'

Neymar: 'My red card was unfair'

Paris Saint-Germain striker Neymar insists that he did not deserve to be sent off in the club's 2-2 draw with Marseille on Sunday night.

Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar has claimed that his dismissal for two yellow cards against Marseille was "unfair".

With three minutes remaining, Neymar was cautioned for his reaction after a foul by Lucas Ocampos, and it led to the Brazilian being ordered from the pitch with his side trailing 2-1.

Edinson Cavani's late free kick would salvage a draw for the Ligue 1 giants, but Neymar has admitted that he had been left frustrated with his treatment during the clash at the Stade Velodrome.

The 25-year-old told Esporte Interativo: "I think it was exaggerated, yes. And unfair. I spent the whole game getting enough [rough treatment]. I have many marks on my body.

"It was a move I tried to continue after suffering a foul. I was annoyed at the blow from behind. The referee (Ruddy Buquet) did what he wanted, which was the send me off and appear more than the players."

Despite the draw, PSG sit four points clear at the top of the standings.
