Contraditions in the story of the woman who claimed she was raped by famous footballer Neymar reportedly forced the law firm representing her to drop the alleged victim's case, the Daily Mail, a British tabloid, reported on Tuesday.
According to the law firm, which is based in Rio de Janeiro, their client said she had given consent to having sex, but then their sexual encounter had turned violent. The firm stated that the woman "described what had happened as 'rape', which is a completely different allegation".
Brazilian football star Neymar had been accused of raping a woman in a Paris hotel last year. Neymar strongly denies all the allegations.
