Neymar has called on football authorities to do more to combat discrimination after the Brazilian forward was involved in a mass brawl, and was subsequently sent off, during Paris Saint-Germain's Ligue 1 match against Marseille.
Neymar was one of five players sent off after at the end of PSG's 1-0 loss on Sunday, and later claimed Marseille defender Alvaro Gonzalez had called him a "monkey" in a series of furious tweets.
PSG have stood by the Brazil forward, saying the club "strongly supports" him, but Neymar conceded he would accept his punishment which is expected to be revealed by the French league's disciplinary commission on Wednesday.
"Yesterday I revolted. I was punished with red because I wanted to hit someone who offended me," Neymar said in a lengthy Instagram post Monday.
"I thought I could not leave without doing something because I realised that those in charge would not do anything, did not notice or ignored the fact."
Neymar was dismissed for slapping Gonzalez on the back of the head, with teammates Layvin Kurzawa and Leandro Paredes also sent off, as well as Marseille's Dario Benedetto and Jordan Amavi.
"In our sport, aggressions, insults, swearing are part of the game, of the dispute. You can't be affectionate. I understand this guy partly, all is part of the game, but racism and intolerance are unacceptable," Neymar continued.
"Should I have ignored it? I don't know yet ... Today, with a cool head, I say yes, but in due course, my companions and I asked the referees for help and we were ignored.
"I accept my punishment because I should have followed the path of clean football. I hope, on the other hand, that the offender will also be punished.
"Racism exists. It exists, but we have to stop it. No more. Enough! The guy was a fool. I also acted like a fool for letting me get involved in that."
Marseille defend Gonzalez
PSG have lost their opening two games of the season for the first time since 1984/85, and face another spell without Neymar whose first two seasons in France were marred by injuries.
They host Metz on on Wednesday in what was originally scheduled to be their Ligue 1 season opener.
Meanwhile, Marseille issued a statement of their own defending Gonzalez. He denied racism and accused Neymar of being a bad loser.
"Alvaro Gonzalez is not racist. He has shown us that by his daily behaviour since joining the club, as his teammates have already testified," the statement read.
The league's disciplinary commission, which will decide the punishments, could investigate Neymar's accusations against Gonzalez, who Marseille claim was spat on by Angel Di Maria.
Marseille pledged to "fully cooperate" with any investigation and said the club would remain at the disposal of the commission.
Any racist behaviour carries a maximum suspension of 10 matches.
Spitting directed at another player can lead to a ban of up to six matches.
Kurzawa meanwhile could be suspended for up to seven matches for violent conduct after aiming a punch at opposition full-back Amavi.
