Neymar livid after bizarre referee error accidentally forces him off pitch in crucial FIFA World Cup audition

Published by Webster

3 min readMay 18, 2026 09:48 AM IST In one of the most bizarre incidents in football, Brazilian football star Neymar was left livid after being accidentally substituted by an error from the fourth official. The game was Neymar’s last chance to impress Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti before the Brazilian FIFA World Cup squad is announced. Instead, Neymar was at the centre of an ugly scene where the game was held up for many minutes as Santos players and coach Cuca tried to plead with the referee to overturn the error of his colleague. The incident happened in the 65th minute of Santos’ Brazilian league clash with Coritiba, when Neymar’s relegation-threatened side were already 3-0 down. Neymar was on the field having his right calf sprayed by a doctor. The referee told him to go to the sidelines, where the treatment continued. But before Neymar was ready to come back on, the fourth official raised a substitution board which indicated that Neymar would be making way for Robinho Jr., who immediately stepped onto the pitch. …

Chi Yu Jen vs Kidambi Srikanth in key third singles; Ayush Shetty vs Lin Chun-Yi crucial in Thomas Cup quarters

Published by Parlour News

2 min readMay 1, 2026 10:29 AM IST India have rotated their third singles players through this Thomas Cup, and it falls on Kidambi Srikanth to fend off Chi Yu-Jen in the decisive fifth rubber, unless the quarterfinals tie against Chinese Taipei is sealed before that. The duo have never met in the past on the Tour, but Srikanth’s rested fitness and recent solidity might have played a part in him preferred over HS Prannoy. As such, it will be up to India’s first singles Lakshya Sen to set the tone against a familiar opponent in Taiwan’s talismanic shuttler, 36 year old, World No 6, Chou Tien Chen. Sen has beaten him at big occasions, but a Thomas Cup could be a different set of pressures owing to pride, for both players. Taiwan’s doubles might be its strong suit, but Satwiksairaj Rankireddy and Chirag Shetty looked very close to their settled best in the humdinger against China – with 5 match points erased in the 24-26 last set. The big pivot of the tie is …

Speaking on the topic ‘Legal Reform Roadmap to a $10 Trillion Bharat’ at the ‘National Rule of Law Convention 2026’ organised by the Bar Association of India in the Capital, CJI Kant said: “A 10-trillion-dollar Bharat will not be built by capital or policy alone. It will be built, in no small part, by the quality of the legal system that upholds the rule of law and the promises on which all of that depends.” “The legal foundations supporting India’s growth over the last three decades were shaped for a relatively simpler economic moment” but “the liberalisation of the 1990s triggered growth, expanded the middle class, and created a sense of economic confidence that the country had not experienced since Independence,” the CJI said. “We must, however, be mindful that the legal functions that sustained that phase, such …
