The team's Twitter feed complained about some of the ref's decisions, while players like Roberto Soldado praised his team-mates and slammed Neymar.

It's been almost 24 hours since the game between Villarreal and Barcelona ended, but players from the Yellow Submarine haven't been able to get over what happened on the pitch.

As you might recall, Barcelona's second goal came via a penalty kick scored by Neymar. The controversial action was followed by an argument between Roberto Soldado and Neymar, who was accused by the Spaniard of diving to get the call. Reports from Catalan-based journal Sport claim that Soldado even called the Brazilian "a clown". Neymar didn't help to ease the situation by sending the ball into the back of the net after taking the spot kick Panenka-style.

Here's the controversial call

In case you missed it, here's Neymar's penalty.

Villarreal's Twitter feed didn't hide the team's discomfort over the controversial call with a furious message. 

" '40, 0-2. Goal by Neymar. The referee invented the call, since Sergio Asenjo stripped the ball from the striker with no foul."

Mexican midfielder Jonathan Dos Santos, currently recovering from a hamstring problem, also tweeted about the controversial call. Dos Santos played for Barcelona during his early years as a professional.

"Mamma mia....Are you serious??

Finally, striker Roberto Soldado had his say about the game in his Twitter feed. The former Valencia and Real Madrid striker praised his team-mates while taking a jab at the referee for his controversial call.

"Giving everything and against everything. With quite 'a pair', something that a guy on the pitch didn't show. Excellent display from the boys."
