With the Brazillian and Kylian at the peak of their powers, PSG are going to be a threat once again in the Champions League, despite their sub-par summer transfer window
Man of the Match
Neymar( PSG) It’s still a joy to watch Neymar when he is in his kind of mood.
Playing just behind Icardi, Neymar linked so well with the players around him namely Kylian Mbappe.
He took his two goals superbly well. He pressed, he defended, and put in a real shift for them
Even that’s a close one because the Brazillian is a dealy combination with goals and assists virtually every time he steps out onto a pitch with either PSG or Brazil
