Neymar PSG

The Brazilian didn't show what we expected to see.

There is still time for him to turn the things around in the second leg but when he was needed the most he wasn't there.

He was getting the ball in the wrong area, he was losing the ball all the time and every time you wanna see him play he was lying on the grass.

He didn't use his intelligence as we expected.

Yes he scored an important goal but he didn't support Mbappe as he should have done.

Neymar just wasn't there in last night's match and as the score line tells.
