Neymar angry at Mbappe for not passing him the ball during PSG win

Neymar was fuming with Kylian Mbappe for not passing to him during Paris Saint-Germain’s 2-1 victory over Juventus in the Champions League.

The two superstars linked up brilliantly to combine for PSG’s two goals in the first half, with Mbappe scoring both beautifully.

“There are times, you’ll see, when we’re the best of friends and sometimes we don’t talk so much, it’s the nature of our relationship that’s like that.

“But there is a lot of respect, I have a lot of respect for the player he is, the player he represents and the importance he has in our team.

“Afterwards, when you have two players with a strong character like that, life is not linear, it’s sure that sometimes things happen but it always remains in the
