The home team felt play should have been interrupted long before the Brazilian's strike in order to tend to a fallen player

Clermont Foot were less than happy over the manner in which Paris Saint-Germain took the lead during Saturday's Ligue 1 meeting.

Just five minutes had been played when Lionel Messi played in Neymar inside the area following a spell of patient PSG build-up.

The Brazilian fired home and left the home team furiously remonstrating with the referee, as a Clermont player had lain stricken in the box for the entire passage of play without the whistle being blown.
