PARIS: Paris St Germain striker Neymar’s suspension for insulting match officials has been reduced from three to two UEFA games. The Court of Arbitration for Sport took a decision to that effect.
PSG and the Brazilian had appealed against the three-game ban imposed by European governing body UEFA in June, and CAS partially upheld the appeal, Reuters reported.
Neymar will be eligible to play in the Champions League in the third round of matches, when PSG travel to Club Brugge on Oct. 22.
