Neymar participated in an exclusive poker tournament on Wednesday, before finishing the evening at McDonalds. The Brazilian striker of Paris Saint-Germain did this a day after the 0-1 defeat to Bayern Munich in the Champions League. After the loss at home, teammate Kylian Mbappé called on the PSG selection to ‘eat well and sleep well’.

Social media shows that Neymar is indeed participating in a poker tournament. French freelance journalist Daniel Riolo comes to RMC Sports with some details. “He took part in a tournament at the Hyatt Regency in Paris with a starting amount of 10,000 euros. I thought it was something from the sponsor. Neymar left but also returned. It was a prestigious tournament for which you had to bring 10,000 euros .” Riolo has to laugh a bit on Twitter about Neymar’s activities.

“Mbappé on Tuesday evening: ‘you have to eat and sleep well’. Neymar on Wednesday evening: poker and McDonalds. The circus PSG on a world tour,” said Riolo, who does not understand Neymar’s way of doing things, shortly after a sensitive defeat in the Champions League. “A day after Mbappé’s call, he plays for 10,000 euros at the Hyatt. That is impossible. We are really going crazy. Neymar is really out of this world. To participate in two poker tournaments a day after the game … “

Despite the 0-1 defeat against Bayern, Mbappé showed combat on Tuesday evening. “Everyone has to stay healthy and eat and sleep well. We can still make it right in the return match. They have a hard time if we put pressure. We have to forget this quickly and just move on.” Mbappé came in as a substitute on Tuesday. The attacker made it difficult for the Germans’ defense and twice saw a goal disallowed for offside.
