Andoni Iraola criticises Neymar

Athletic Bilbao captain Andoni Iraola claims that Barcelona's Neymar 'has lessons to learn' following his perceived showboating in the Copa del Rey final.

Athletic Bilbao captain Andoni Iraola has criticised Neymar for his 'unsporting conduct' during Saturday's Copa del Rey final at the Camp Nou.

The Barcelona forward brought an angry reaction from a number of Bilbao players when he tried an elaborate trick in the latter stages of the match, when the Catalan outfit were leading 3-1.

The showboating was seen as a mark of disrespect and Iraola has criticised the Brazilian for his actions.

"I don't think it was at all classy and it isn't sporting," Iraola told reporters. "Neymar has examples in his own side that he should look to because they have a great deal to teach him."

Iraola made his final appearance for Bilbao in the Copa final, with the Spaniard heading to the MLS this summer.
