Neymar scores twice for PSG on return to action

Neymar opened the scoring for PSG in the 40th minute, before making it 2-0 in the 83rd minute. PSG's new striker Marco Asensio scored the winning goal in the 88th minute.

Neymar marked his return after a long injury with a double

This was PSG's first and only win in their 2023 summer Asian tour, after a 0-0 draw with Al Nassr and a 2-3 loss to Cerezo Osaka and 1-2 to Inter Milan.

After the match with Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors in Busan (South Korea), the Paris team returned to the Cite Sportif de Poissy training center to prepare for the new Ligue 1 (France) season opening on August 12.

Neymar's return at this time will help PSG, after Messi has left the team, and number 1 star Kylian Mbappe is banned from playing due to conflict of interest (no contract renewal).

PSG's new coach Luis Enrique is currently testing the squad ahead of the new season. Newcomers Asensio, Lee Kang-in, Manuel Ugarte have only played their first matches. Meanwhile, Milan Skriniar and Lucas Hernandez have yet to play.

Neymar showed good form in his first match back to competition.

PSG will have nearly 10 more days to review the squad, as well as evaluate the new recruits, and the new stars coming to stabilize before the new season begins. In particular, Neymar's timely return will create a lot of confidence for coach Luis Enrique, while Mbappe's situation is not really clear.
