The Brazilian ace started going at it against Portuguese defender Ruben Vezo, but the conflict escalated once the game concluded.

Once again, Neymar is involved in a controversy regarding his temper on and off the pitch.

Following criticism for last week's taunting of Valencia's fans in the late 3-2 win for Los Blaugranas, Neymar was involved in a tuzzle with Granada's defender Ruben Vezo which could have escalated if Vezo's team-mate Barral had failed to stop them in the tunnel leading to the dressing rooms.

Everything started after Neymar's untimely tackle against Isaac Cuenca. Vezo wasn't happy and started a war of words with the Brazilian.

Both players were booked after having a few words, and continued their rant against each other during the final minutes of the game. When the final whistle was blown, everything seemed to be ok, but Vezo started arguing with Neymar and prompted him to finish their "conversation" in the tunnels.

As both players entered the tunnel, Neymar shoved Vezo down the flight of the eight-step staircase leading to the locker rooms.

Immediately, Vezo makes it back and confronts Neymar. Andre Gomes, a member of Barcelona's staff and Granada's David Barral tried to keep both players apart.

Before Vezo came back to his senses, he managed to send Neymar to the ground after pushing him aside.

Neither player has been suspended after this incident, which was reported by the game's officers. What this footage shows is that Neymar clearly should take it easier, as he could have damaged his opponent over a rant.
