We may have only just entered 2018 but surely we have already seen the best team goal of the year.
Last night, in a 6-1 Coupe de France rout of Rennes, PSG produced an unbelievable counter-attacking goal that was finished off by Neymar for his second goal of the game.
One of the best counter-attacks you will see... Neymar and Kylian Mbappe were heavily involved as PSG scored a beautiful team goal which started from a Rennes corner. π
The move, which led to Unai Emery's side's fourth goal of the game, started in PSG's box when they were defending a corner.
Under pressure from their opponents, the Parisians were remarkably cool under pressure and played their way out of trouble.
The ball made its way to Angel Di Maria, who produced a delightful flick around the corner to play in Marco Verratti, who followed it up by spraying the ball out to Neymar on the left.
The world's most expensive player darted down the flank, nipped in side and fed Di Maria, who had pelted up the pitch and made a run in behind.
He picked out Kylian Mbappe, who showed incredible awareness to set up Neymar, rather than shoot himself - and the Brazilian completed the free-flowing counter by slotting home with ease.
It was poetry in motion stuff and social media has been awash with reactions to the stunning passage of play:
Paris went from defending a corner to scoring on the other end. Incredible team goal. Very unselfish and Neymar finished it off. #SRFCPSG
Only a week into 2018 and I doubt weβll see another team goal as good as this one. #PSG
Le 4e sous un autre angle ... Quel but bordel
That goal by PSG against Rennes still replaying in my mind. Great team goal.
Can you think of a better team counter-attacking goal?
