​Uefa charge PSG striker Neymar over Man Utd penalty comments

Paris Saint-Germain forward Neymar has been charged bu Uefa with making "insulting acts against a match official" following his comments on social media about the Champions League tie with Manchester United.

The 27-year-old called the decision to award United a 94th-minute penalty in the match on 7 March "a disgrace".

The penalty was awarded through VAR after referee Damir Skomina had initially given United a corner when Diogo Dalot's shot struck Presnel Kimpembe and went over the crossbar.
