PSG signed Neymar for matches like yesterday's against Bayern Munich. The Brazilian star was a nightmare for the current European champion, putting on an individual exhibition despite having no luck in front of goal. He was elected MVP of the match and generated the clearest chances of the Parisians during the 90 minutes.
If we look at the statistics, Neymar was rightly chosen the best player of the match. The playmaker touched the ball 85 times, the most of PSG, in addition to receiving 7 fouls, leading the classification ahead of his teammate Leandro Paredes, who caused 6. Neymar was also the one who gave the most PSG passes in the adverse field, 28, being also the player who more shots tried for the 90 minutes with 6.
Neymar's two posts make the former Barcelona player the first to have two clubs in a Champions League final phase match the Brazilian having been precisely the last to achieve it in 2020 against Leipzig. Since arriving in Paris in 2017, Neymar has gone from being a left winger with the capacity to get inside into a total player moving across the entire front attack and who decides matches with his technical quality.
