Manchester City fan confronted by Neymar 'shocked' by Barcelona star's reaction

The Manchester City fan who was confronted by Barcelona star Neymar following Tuesday's Champions League tie hits out at the footballer's "unprofessional" manner.

The Manchester City supporter who was involved in a bust-up with Barcelona star Neymar has described the Brazilian as "very unprofessional".

Aziz Hammad was confronted by Neymar pitch-side following Barca's 2-1 victory over City at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday night.

Video footage of the incident emerged showing Neymar approach Mr Hammad at the end of the Champions League last-16 clash after the supporter gestured that the forward dived.

The City fan told BlueMoonRisingTV: "It's part of football, it wasn't abuse. It's very unprofessional to come face to face with a fan and look like he was picking a fight.

"Neymar walked around towards me and came face to face. He said things in Portuguese but I don't speak Portuguese. Stewards told me I was in trouble and Neymar walked off. That was the end until the video was sent to me.

"I was just doing what everyone else was and I couldn't believe the reaction. Most players just ignore fan gestures and taunts."

Neymar was substituted in the 80th minute of the match in Manchester.
