Neymar ‘laughs’ after losing €900,000 in online betting

Neymar‘s poor injury luck has carried over to online gambling, as he lost £900,000 in just one hour of online casino which he streamed on his Twitch channel.

The Paris Saint-Germain star – who earns £3.2m-per-month –  has been left to his own devices after he was ruled out for the rest of the season with an ankle injury, Mail Online reports.

Though he is more known for his love of poker, Neymar often tries his luck in online games on his Twitch platform.

The 31-year-old pretended to cry as a mock Titanic theme began to play when his realisation set in – music which is often used on social media as a meme for moments of sadness.

It was gathered that in a couple of seconds a range of mock emotions were seen as his crying turned into laughter, before he shouted out in anguish – putting his fingers in his mouth.

He then said ‘oh f***’ with a laugh before joining in with the out-of-tune flute music – pretending to play the instrument.

One of his fellow players in the background could be heard saying Neymar “went from a million to zero in 60 minutes.”

Neymar then joked that he was going to put the video of the moment on YouTube.

Mail Online also reports that in the United Kingdom, government legislation is being introduced to restrict betting companies from appearing as shirt sponsors in the Premier League.
