It was almost forgotten. During the latest match of his extended season – a historic exercise that finally saw him win the Champions League while reaching the final of the Club World Cup – PSG had failed on the emotional level. Beyond the heavy defeat conceded against the Blues (3-0).
Like a boiling or even violent Luis Enrique Luis with the final whistle, the Parisians had ended up falling in fact, losing their nerves over the wines and yielding far too easily to provocation. A legitimate frustration which notably played a very bad turn to Joao Neves.
Expected at the end of the match for an ugly gesture for Spanish Marc Cucurella, the young Portuguese midfielder from PSG was not spared from the disciplinary bodies. This while FIFA regulations, for this world of clubs in unprecedented format, wanted to be vague on the issue.
Deprived of recovery of PSG in L1
This Sunday, RMC tells us that the cleaver fell. With cutting edge. Joao Neves has indeed received a suspension of two matches, valid on all the competitions stamped UEFA or LFP. The interested party will therefore be suspended against Tottenham this Wednesday in Udine for the UEFA Super Cup. But also in Nantes, Sunday, on the first day of Ligue 1 on Sunday.
According to the radio aroused, the Lusitanian international therefore observes an adapted recovery program since the beginning of the week – his return to school not expected before August 22 and the reception of Angers at the Parc des Princes. Last season, Joao Neves, from the age of 20, experienced a flash adaptation in Paris, with no less than 59 matches on his credit for seven goals scored and 10 assisted assists.
