In the UEFA Champions League quarterfinal duel against Atalanta, Neymar missed an early goal-scoring chance that would have given Paris Saint-Germain a 1-0 lead. This time around, in what has been deemed as the biggest game in the club’s history, Neymar came up short once again.

In the early stages of PSG’s UEFA Champions League semifinal clash against RB Leipzig, Neymar made an off-ball run into the box behind the German side’s backline. PSG forward Kylian Mbappe sent in a timely weighted ball to Neymar to set up a goal-scoring chance. However, the Brazilian forward was unable to connect on the chance, as he hit the woodwork.

Expect Neymar to get more goal-scoring opportunities in this contest.
