Already appeared around a table of the European Poker Tour in the middle of the followingnoon, Neymar returned to play late this Wednesday evening at the Hyatt Regency in Paris. All the day following the defeat once morest Bayern Munich in the Champions League (0-1) and while Kylian Mbappé urged his teammates to “sleep well” for the return match once morest the Bavarians.
Not sure that Kylian Mbappé appreciates the latest Instagram stories from the official Poker Stars account. This Wednesday evening, around 10:30 p.m., the online poker company, partner of Neymar, published several photos of the Brazilian in full play at the European Poker Tour in Paris. Already appeared during this event in the middle of the followingnoon, the Brazilian therefore did it once more late in the evening.
“He returned to play the 10.00 euros tonight. He is once more at the Hyatt Regency, said Daniel Riolo in l’After Foot, on RMC. I thought he went there for the sponsor (this Wednesday followingnoon, editor’s note). He went out and, in fact, he came back. He returned to a big tournament tonight, a 10,000 euro entry.”
A questioning timing
The timing of this presence at this poker tournament and especially the late schedule question, the day following the defeat of PSG in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League. In addition, this little trip comes as Kylian Mbappé urged his teammates to “sleep well and eat well” in view of the round of 16 second leg of C1 once morest the Bavarians. “Above all, all our players must be in good health. Everyone should eat well and sleep well,” said the world champion on Tuesday evening.
On a series of three consecutive defeats in all competitions, a great first since 2011, PSG have an appointment with Lille on Sunday at the Parc des Princes (24th day of Ligue 1, 1 p.m.). With or without a poker tournament for Neymar by then?
