Neymar and Nelson Semedo were involved in a bust-up in Barcelona training on Thursday, leaving the Brazilian to storm off the pitch, but this is not the first time teammates things have boiled over between teammates.

Gravesen and Robinho

In 2006, Thomas Gravesen and Robinho ended up throwing punches after a tackle that was not well received, leaving Fabio Capello to send both players to the Real dressing room.

Mascherano causing trouble in Brazil

Marcelinho Carioca took justice into his own hands after taking a hit from Javier Mascherano at Corinthians in 2006, adding to the list of incidents the Argentine had during his time there.

Boateng vs Lewandowski

A strong challenge from Jerome Boateng left Robert Lewandowski annoyed in 2015, and both players were kept apart by Bayern Munich teammates as they exchanged words.

Ibrahimovic and Onyewu wanting to kill each other

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is known as a bad boy and admits he and Oguchi Onyewu would have killed one another had they not been kept apart by teammates in a scuffle that left the Swede with a broken rib.

Chica-Juan Carlos and the famous 'colleja'

Tensions ran high for a while in Real Betis training before Javier Chica and Juan Carlos eventually squared up before being pulled apart by their teammates in 2013.

Robben, Martins and the World Cup

Dutch players have a history of falling out and Bruno Martins Indi and Arjen Robben left nothing out on the pitch during a training session at the 2014 World Cup.

Tevez leaves Marquinhos bleeding

At Corinthians, Carlos Tevez and Marquinhos came to blows as training ended and the defender left the field bleeding after being on the receiving end of punches by the forward.

Boca Juniors fist fights

Training came to a halt at Boca when Insaurralde and Silva ended up in an off-the-ball incident that required the intervention of their teammates.

Adebayor vs Kolo Toure

The two former Arsenal players squared up after clashing in what was supposed to be a non-contact practice match to warm up for a trip to face Arsenal in 2011.
