Talent on the ball may not necessarily be the main factor to differentiate the winners from the losers when Barcelona and Real Madrid will lock horns to compete in the 2014 Copa del Rey final. The amount of controversy that usually stains El Clasico as well as Neymar’s reputation as a diver has actually given spectators the opportunity to ponder.
Since last Saturday, the following footage featuring Neymar has gone viral. It reveals an incident during Barcelona’s stunning 1-0 loss away to Granada. Brazilian star Neymar is seen giving a petulant kick to opposite player Nyom. Luckily for Neymar, Nyom didn't overreact and the referee ignored the situation.
No red card for the ex-Santos forward but should such a thing happen in the Spanish Cup final on Wednesday, expect Real Madrid players to surround the referee in protest.
