The PSG forward dazzled with his ability to send in keen through balls into the opponent’s defensive third and create goal-scoring opportunities for teammates with ease.

In league play this past season, Neymar posted a keen 3.44 key passes per 90 rate, which is now a new career-high in his Ligue 1 career. Overall, Neymar totaled for 54 key passes recorded over the 18 league appearances this season.
