What madness! Refereeing blunder robs Neymar, sparks star's fury
The officiating in Santos vs Coritiba made a mistake during a substitution, took Neymar out of the game, and sparked OUTRAGE from the star.
Santos’ coaching staff wrote on the slip that number "31" (Gonzalo Escobar) should be substituted.
But, due to some communication error, the board was raised showing that number 10 — Neymar himself — was to be substituted.
At that moment, the star was receiving treatment off the side of the pitch.
Neymar returned to the field (without the referee’s permission), was shown a yellow card, and then really did have to leave the pitch.
Neymar then took the substitution slip and showed that it said "31" (Escobar), not "10" (Neymar).

Robinho Jr came on in Neymar’s place.
