Neymar was the driving force behind Paris Saint-Germain’s comeback against Atalanta. He was the main playmaker on the team with five goal-scoring chances created. Neymar topped off his performance with the game-winning assist to Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting in the final minutes of the tie.
Most notably, Neymar notched a Champions League career-high 16 dribbles completed. Atalanta just did not have much of an answer to his on-ball prowess.
