Published

Neymar cheekily asked a goalkeeper where he wanted to place a penalty last night - before setting up Mauro Icardi instead.

Paris Saint-Germain are currently warming up ahead of the Champions League resuming next month and welcomed Belgian second division side Waasland-Beveren on Friday evening.
The French outfit were leading 2-0 and received a penalty a minute into the second half.
As Neymar stood over the ball, he made a gesture to the keeper asking which corner he wanted in - before proceeding to lay it off for Icardi to fire home.

Thomas Tuchel's side ended up running out 7-0 winners at the Parc des Princes and Neymar was one of the stars of the show.
Fans have always been aware of the Brazilian's talents but haven't been impressed with his conduct on the pitch.
The 28-year-old played just 15 league games before Ligue 1's early conclusion and still managed to score 13 goals and register six assists.
He's shown flashes of brilliance during PSG's return to action and he'll be desperate to strut his stuff against Atalanta on August 12.
Interestingly, he and Icardi managed to pull off the audacious penalty trick just 24 hours after Real Madrid duo Sergio Ramos and Karim Benzema messed it up.
With Madrid 1-0 up and on the verge of winning La Liga against Villarreal, 'Los Blancos' were awarded a penalty and club captain Ramos stepped up to take.
But instead of scoring himself, Ramos touched the ball forward to Benzema who slotted home his second goal of the game.
The penalty then had to be retaken however as Benzema had encroached into the area far too early.
Sergio Ramos lays his penalty off for Karim Benzema, but it's ruled out for encroachment! :x:
Benzema eventually took the penalty second time around, and drilled it into the bottom corner to surely clinch the title for Madrid :trophy:

At least this is one thing that Barcelona do better than Real Madrid. The "pass-penalty" that Messi and Suárez did was pretty botched by Ramos and Benzema pic.twitter.com/QUDIWkYRsU
