Dani Alves mend Neymar/Cavani divide in dinner


Paris Saint-Germain head coach Unai Emery has revealed that Dani Alves organised a team dinner in order to smooth over the row between Neymar and Edinson Cavani.

Neymar and Cavani argued over who should take a penalty, with Cavani eventually stepping up for the spot-kick only to have it saved.

The pair also appeared to disagree on who should take free-kicks from dangerous positions, with Dani Alves intervening on behalf of Neymar during the contest.

And Emery has revealed that Alves attempted to smooth things over off the field after the match, saying the Brazilian organised a dinner to clear the air.

"It's very important for the players to have lunch or dinner all together because they can talk to each other outside the training session."

Emery also revealed that he had instituted a hierarchy of spot-kick takers, with the intention of avoiding a repeat incident.
