First, it was two games. Then it was one. Now CONMEBOL really has dropped the hammer on Neymar.
South America’s soccer confederation announced Friday that the Brazilian star will receive a four-game suspension and a $10,000 fine for kicking the ball into a Colombia player from close range and head-butting another opponent in a Copa America game this week. That means Neymar will miss the remainder of the competition.
CONMEBOL provisionally suspended Neymar for one game Thursday, only one hour after it initially announced a two-game ban.
