PSG stars fought each other in the dressing room after row over set-piece duties
Neymar and Cavani had an on-field disagreement during Paris Saint-Germain’s home 2-0 win over Lyon on Sunday, September 17. 2017.
The disagreement was over who should take a penalty during the game. Cavani took it and missed.
After the game, the disagreement escalated in the dressing room according to French daily who reported that the duo had to be kept apart by teammates.
Neymar joined Paris Saint-Germain in a mega-move from Barcelona which cost the French club a world record £198m.
The 25-year-old reportedly left Barcelona to escape the shadows of Lionel Messi and become the face of Paris Saint-Germain.
Being the main man means being in charge of set-pieces and penalty but Cavani, who is PSG's penalty taker before Neyma's arrival, is not ready to relinquish that duty.
Earlier in the game, the Uruguayan attempted to take a free-kick before Dani Alves took the ball from him and handed it to Neymar.
Neymar has also reportedly unfollowed Cavani on his social media.
