Brazil star Neymar was sent off after clashing with an opponent, the fifth red card of the 21-year-old’s career, as Santos lost 3-1 to Ponte Preta in the Paulista soccer championship.

Both players argued with the referee and were sent off.

“I don’t know what happened. We were challenging for the ball, I got kicked and was sent off,” Neymar told reporters.

“Neither of us should have been sent off. Football is getting really boring, for the players, supporters and television viewers.”

Neymar sent off for kicking his opponent in the balls- and then acts innocent.- you can see him here fighting the guy who provoked him..
