Neymar has caused controversy in Brazil after making comments about a referee in an interview. The 34-year-old player, who returned to his Brazilian youth club Santos last year, gave the interview to Brazilian SporTV after Santos won a match 2-0 against Remo. In the interview, he expressed frustration with referee Savio Pereira Sampaio, who gave him a yellow card during the match.
' The statement has sparked significant criticism in Brazil and on social media, where Neymar is accused of being sexist. It is unclear if Neymar will face punishment. Last month, Gustavo Marques, who plays for Red Bull Bragantino, received a twelve-match suspension for discriminatory comments about a female referee after a match.
