#2 Bayern Munich fans throw fake €500 notes towards Neymar

Paris Saint-Germain v Celtic FC - UEFA Champions League
Neymar endured a lot of taunts from the Bayern Munich fans

After protesting through banners in their last European game against Anderlecht, Bayern Munich fans were at it again, this time focusing their angst towards world's most expensive signing - Paris Saint Germain's Neymar Jr.

In the 34th minute of the game between the two sides, Neymar was advancing to take a corner when the local fans from the closest stand threw fake €500 notes at Neymar which even had his face imprinted on it. The Brazilian did notice those notes but cleared them away with his boot instantly.

This incident may incur UEFA's wrath yet again on the Bavarians just as the match against Anderlecht did. As for the governing body, Munich fans again had a banner which read, "Throwing fake money is charged but exploiting our football is fine?"

Coming back to the Neymar incident, the hate from the Bayern Munich faithful have arisen because of the plain mockery of the FFP rules by the state-owned hierarchy of the Parisians.

But the Munich fans seem to forget that Qatar - the country's royal family which owns PSG is the venue of Bayern Munich's winter break training camp for the past four years. Also, Qatar's international airport is the platinum sponsor of the club which makes this protest a bit ironic.
