Watch Neymar get yellow card for rainbow flick before confronting ref in tunnel after PSG 5-0 win against Montpellier

FURIOUS Neymar confronted the referee in the tunnel after being shown a yellow card for attempting a rainbow flick.

The Brazilian show-stopper was up to his old tricks on Saturday during Paris Saint-Germain’s 5-0 victory over Montpellier.

PSG took the lead after just eight minutes before their opponents were reduced to ten-men just nine minutes later.

And with the visitors with a mountain to climb, Neymar was given the license to showboat his skills in front of the home fans.

With just 36 minutes on the clock, pink-haired Neymar attempted the audacious trick which hit the Montpellier man before going out for a throw-in.

One man not impressed was the referee who dragged the former Barcelona man over and told him to cut it out.

Neymar, who was targeted by the visitors throughout the game, was then shown a yellow card from the official for answering back.

After growing increasingly irate throughout the opening 45 minutes following a lack of protection, Neymar directed his frustration towards Marco Verratti who was standing next to the ref.

Footage online revealed he shouted: “I’m playing football and he shows me the yellow card? Tell him he can’t show me it!”

The referee then responded: “Calm down.”

Neymar then added: “Calm down, my a***.”

The forward, who has scored 13 goals in 14 games this season, reacted to one foul by mocking the culprit when he instantly dribbled straight past him.

The contest was not without incident after team-mate Kylian Mbappe was involved in a touchline bust-up with manager Thomas Tuchel.

Mbappe, 21, was withdrawn in the 68th minute, moments after Layvin Kurzawa had put the Parisians five up at the Parc des Princes.

Tuchel had to physically stop his petulant star from ignoring him completely and stropping straight past him.
