After being expelled by PSG, Neymar won more than R $ 10,000 in a poker game

This Saturday (3), Neymar had a day to forget, at least in terms of his performance on the pitch. In his second match after recovering from injury – the first as a starter – the Brazilian saw the PSG lose by 1×0 to Lille, and got involved in confusion with Tiago Djaló, who ended up in the expulsion of the two players in the final minutes of the match by League 1.

The international press strongly criticized the attitude of shirt 10 of the PSG, which was classified as ‘immature’ by France Football and, according to The Parisian, the player “will never mature”.

However, according to RMC Sports, in the early hours of Saturday to Sunday, Neymar decided to spend time in one of his hobbies favorites: poker. At a table with a prize of up to 35 thousand euros (R $ 234 thousand), the player finished in sixth place at the table and received 1,749 euros (R $ 11,670.85 in the current quote) as a prize.

The Brazilian is known for having several hobbies, including poker with prominence, mainly for being one of the ambassadors of the ‘Poker Stars’, one of the most famous poker sites in the world.

Due to his expulsion, Neymar will be tried by the Disciplinary Committee of the Professional Football League of France next Wednesday (7). PSG shirt 10 can grab a hook of up to three games of suspension, according to information from the newspaper LParisian.
