Neymar scored two goals as Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) secured an early lead against Lyon in the Ligue 1 match on Sunday. The Brazilian forward opened the scoring for his team in the first half, and he added another in the second to put PSG in control.
The match was a closely contested affair, with both teams creating chances throughout the game. However, it was Neymar who shone brightest, using his pace and technical skills to beat his marker and score twice from long-range shots. His second goal was particularly impressive, as he took a shot from distance that flew past the goalkeeper and into the back of the net.
The victory for PSG was their third consecutive win in the league, and they now sit top of the table with seven points from four games. The team has been performing well under new coach Mauricio Pochettino, who has brought in several key players during the transfer window.
Neymar's performance was also praised by his teammates, who were quick to give him credit for his contribution to the team's success. "He is a world-class player," said PSG midfielder Marco Verratti. "He can change the game with just one touch."
Overall, it was a great day for PSG and Neymar, who showed why he is one of the best footballers in the world. With more wins to come in the upcoming matches, the future looks bright for the French giants.
