Here are the five we've picked out for you. 😳 Neymar sent off under the Vini rule The sad twilight of Neymar's career seems to be hitting new lows.

The referee took note of Nestor's complaints, consulted VAR and showed Neymar a red card under the “Vini Jr rule”, in force since the 2026 World Cup. Neymar will miss two matches through an accumulation of cards, as it was his third yellow following the one he received in the first half. 🥇 They already know the Ballon d'Or winner Today, Marca tells the story of Mellerio, the Parisian jeweller responsible for making the Ballon d'Or trophy each year.
