Christophe Galtier has defended Neymar’s “angry” behaviour after being substituted in Paris Saint-Germain’s narrow win over Lyon on Sunday.
Neymar provided the assist for Lionel Messi ’s early goal, which proved to be the game’s telling strike in a 1-0 victory at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais. In the 86th minute of the match, Galtier opted to take the Brazilian off for Carlos Soler – and the decision did not go down well with Neymar.
The PSG star was visibly frustrated with the call and sat with a face of thunder on the substitutes’ bench. For some, it was a sign of disrespect for his manager, but Galtier did not see anything wrong with Neymar’s behaviour.
