During today’s postponed match between PSG and Istanbul Basaksehir, Neymar responded with one of the best goals in 2020 so far.
Neymar Jr tends to respond well when he is inspired and today he scored one of the best goals of 2020. Last night’s incident of racism had him completely sold to the cause of supporting the fight against any type of discrimination.
After the match was postponed today, the Brazilian player wanted to leave his mark in an atypical match that gave them the chance to win their group. His particular show started early with an incredible solo goal in which he nutmegs a defender and slots the ball in the top corner. Not soon after that, Neymar got assisted by Kylian Mbappe for the second goal.
After this moment, the Brazilian star continued his particular show by getting a penalty in his favor. Ney left Mbappe for the shot and the Frenchman didn’t miss for PSG’s third goal before half time. The second half was possibly going to bring us more excitement when both sides returned to the pitch.
Neymar nets a hat-trick.
It took Neymar five minutes into the second half to get his hat-trick with another one of his specials. He took a ball from the wing and cut to the inside. After that, he combined with Angel Di Maria for a one-two before releasing another potent strike to the top corner. Even though the game is not over yet, we can already tell you some interesting stats about Neymar.
With his three goals this evening, he reached an impressive 41 Champions League goals and 24 assists in 60 matches. No other Brazilian player in history has these numbers. Neymar already won the 2015 competition and reached the most recent final. We have a feeling this won’t be Neymar’s only exhibition throughout the season. All we can do with him at this level is sit back and enjoy the show.
