However, tensions rose again after the half-time whistle was blown, when Neymar approached the referee in the tunnel.
According to the Daily Mail, Neymar could be heard telling his teammate Marco Verratti: "I play football and he shows me a yellow card. Tell him he can't give me a yellow."
The referee, who was close by, responded by saying: "Calm down."
Neymar approached the match official again after the match ended, talking to him in an aggressive manner, to which the referee responded: "Speak French!"
