So, it looks like there might just be a problem in France, between two Attackers Edison Cavani and Neymar, after they both had a fall out twice, on who would take the “set-piece” duties.

This happened during PSG’s 2 – 0 home win over league rivals Lyon. The home side won the game thanks to two own goals from Marcelo and Jeremy Morel.

The first incident happened, when Dani Alves refused to hand over the ball to Cavani to take a free-kick, instead he gave the ball to his country man, Neymar to take.

and the second happened, when Neymar and Cavani argues over who should take the penalty in the 79th minute. Cavani eventually took it, but he missed from the 12 yards.

(Neymar didn’t look too happy allowing Cavani to take the penalty.)

Paris Saint-Germain manager, Unai Emery, says he expects Edinson Cavani and Neymar, to reach an agreement over who takes penalties.

“The penalties are to be struck by a few players, one is Cavani and the other is Neymar,” Emery said.

“It takes a gentleman’s agreement on the ground to hit the penalties.

“Afterwards, we will arrange internally for the penalties that are coming in, because I think both are able to score them, and I want the two to alternate in this exercise.

“If there is no agreement, I will decide. I do not want it to be a problem for us.”
