Training Field Clash and Public Apology
Neymar publicly admitted that he crossed the line during a heated training session after striking eighteen year old teammate Robinho Junior when the young forward successfully dribbled past him on the practice pitch at the Santos sports complex.
The thirty four year old superstar confirmed that he lost his temper during the argument and immediately offered a full apology to the teenage prospect and his family inside the locker room following the sudden clash.
Santos Investigation and Final Reconciliation
Santos launched an internal review into the incident before both players resolved their differences and publicly embraced on the sideline after a goal during their next cup match in South America.
Robinho Junior accepted the apology from the Brazilian veteran and explained to reporters that the disagreement had been settled peacefully so the squad could focus completely on their upcoming league matches.
