Enrique tells Neymar to keep his cool
Barcelona boss Luis Enrique warned Neymar to keep his emotions in check when he returns from suspension in the heated atmosphere of a Catalan derby at Espanyol on Saturday.
The Brazilian has missed Barca's previous three league games, including a thrilling 3-2 win at Real Madrid last weekend, due to suspension after being sent-off and then sarcastically applauding the officials when Barca slumped to a 2-0 defeat at Malaga on April 8.
It was Neymar's first red card for the club, but Enrique is wary of the fact he will be a target as Espanyol try to derail their city rivals' title chances.
"He is a specialist in putting up with these type of situations because if there is a player used to being fouled and, above all, fouled with force, it is Neymar," said Enrique on Friday.
