It might not be a World Cup game. It might not be the Champions League. But Neymar was in no mood to be given the runaround during a five-a-side match as he barged a teenager to the floor after losing possession.

The Paris Saint-Germain ace was taking part in 'The Neymar Jr Five' which is the world's largest five-a-side competition with teams from all the over the world competing to reach the final stages.

Neymar tried to bamboozle his considerably younger opponent with an array of tricks but the teenager kept his eye on the ball and successfully tackled the samba star.

Having lost possession on the small pitch, Neymar wanted instant retribution as he raced back, stride for stride with his opponent before barging him into the barrier.

The referee blew up for a foul and Neymar, while initially attempting to protest his innocence, could not contain a wry smile that he had got his own back.

Social media quickly took to the clip and criticised Neymar for his unsportsmanlike behaviour.

Others simply joked they were impressed he stayed on his feet after he was heavily criticised at the World Cup in Russia for going to ground too easily.

Neymar has been heavily linked with a move to Real Madrid following the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus.

But the Brazilian, who failed to earn a top-10 nomination for FIFA's 'The Best' award, insists he will remain at PSG as they look to win the Champions League under new boss Thomas Tuchel.

The former Dortmund manager is ready to lay down ground rules for his stars with parties, sweets and fizzy drinks all being closely monitored.

Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and their fellow PSG stars will no longer be allowed on late nights out after Tuchel befriended owners of the local nightclubs, which are regularly visited by his players.
