PSG's trio delivered in admirable form as the French giant destroyed Guingamp 9-0.
Neymar scored a beautiful goal for Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday against Guingamp, after controlling a great pass from teammate Dani Alves just in time to take the lead. He ended with a brace as PSG won 9-0 at Parc des Princes.
Neymar's opener gave PSG a 1–0 lead early in the first half. With a delicate touch, which fooled the defender, the Brazilian quickly reacted thanks to a simple albeit smart finish. He ended with a brace as Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani also overwhelmed their opponents.
