Cani: Neymar's way of playing is going to get him in trouble

Atletico Madrid's Cani has said that Neymar's way of playing is going to bring up problems throughout his career. The Brazilian was at the middle of a storm on Wednesday night as Barcelona and Atletico players clashed in a heated Copa del Rey match.

"All his career he is going to have problems. Neymar has his style of play, he's tricky... it is his style of play (...). Some day he is going to have a problem like he has had today, but if he likes that... that's how he plays," the Atletico player said in the mixed zone after the match at the Vicente Calderon.

Cani wasn't a witness to events at the end of the first half because he was "on the pitch warming up with the substitutes."

"Gabi said that he only said it was [Alba's block] was penalty and red card and that he didn't say anything else and was sent off", explained the midfielder, who made his official debut for the Rojiblancos in the match.

His bow for the club was "a little bittersweet". He said he would like to have won and progressed to the next round, but it wasn't to be. "My debut came at this moment and I tried to do the best possible," he added.
