VIDEO: Villarreal's Tomas Pina tries to break Neymar in half, shown red card
Reuters
Villarreal are on the verge of being knocked out of the Copa del Rey in the semifinal stage by Barcelona, and frustration seems to be gripping the Yellow Submarine.
Midfielder Tomas Pina attempted to slice Neymar clean in half with one of the most asinine tackles of the season.
Pina was, not surprisingly, shown a red card for the hack job.
Neymar scored the opening goal of the match in only the third minute.
