More drama from Paris. Following 'Penaltygate', Edinson Cavani was not present at Silva's birthday celebrations.

Only four players were did not attend the dinner held in a ballroom at the Parc des Princes: Cavani, Thomas Meunier, Julian Draxler and third-choice goalkeeper Remy Descamps.

Any other player and the news would have been quickly dismissed but, following the penalty dispute between Neymar and Cavani, Kylian Mbappe's Twitter post has blown up and is now doing the rounds on social media.

Hours before the birthday, Cavani posted a picture of himself surrounded by horses, leading to many pointing out the fact he should be present at his captain's celebrations.
