LIGUE 1 - PSG: Neymar resurfaces! praised by Pochettino

For a while, we thought he was lost to top-level football. At 29, Neymar had left doubt about his career, especially with the Brazilian selection. A spleen that the number 10 of Paris Saint-Germain has dragged several weeks. In Ligue 1, his performances were also worrying. Unable to make one-on-one differences, Neymar worried. But since this week, the former Barcelona seems to have found some juice.

In Leipzig, despite the frustration of the draw (2-2), Neymar was active, sharp. Last night, while being affected by the accidental death of Brazilian singer Marilia Mendonça, the native of Mogi das Cruzes made an excellent copy. Sharp, he again displayed qualities that could destabilize the opposing defense. Author of a double, is Neymar coming back? Questioned at a press conference, Mauricio Pochettino was very brief.

“He had a very good game. He scored two goals. For two offensive players, it's always important. It's the same with Kylian. It's good that they were both able to score. ” In the mixed zone, Junior Dina Ebimbe was more dithyrambic. “Tonight (yesterday), he showed that he's a great player. He gave us two goals ahead. He put in two very nice goals, not at all obvious to put. We're happy to have Ney with us, we're happy with what he's doing for the team. We hope he will continue like this all season. " Imitated a few moments later by Bordeaux's Mbaye Niang.

“He scored two goals, he's a very great player. They are guys who are efficient when needed. Congratulations to him, I hope he will do good things with Paris in the European Cup. When you have no physical preparation, it's complicated. There I find that with the rhythm of the matches, the fact of repeating European matches at high intensity, it allows him to regain his rhythm. This evening we saw that he was sharper, he became decisive again. Good for him and for Paris. ” And it is not Pochettino who will say the opposite
