Neymar was playing the Messi role just like he did in the Brazil NT, providing a lot of key passes but also taking the shots whenever he could get close to the penalty box. His finishing is still a bit off as usual but yesterday he was very good.
Read the french press, and yeah that's that:
- Missed two big chances.
- But has 1 goal, 1 assist. And could have had 2 more assists if Cavani didn't fail to score.
- Did the job in midfield, and defended when needed since Kurzawa is shit.
He wasn't the best player last night according to the press though. Mbappe, and Alves got higher scores.
