French heavyweights and previous season’s Champions League finalists Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) arrived in red hot form at Old Trafford on Wednesday. Brazilian winger Neymar Jr ensured that the Red Devils did not get away with another victory against PSG this time around, as he netted twice to see off Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men. Interestingly, Man United had defeated the Parc des Princes outfit in the opening fixture of the European club competition this season. Neymar Jr opened the scoring in the 6th minute with Kylian Mbappe combining together to strike past David de Gea. The Frenchman’s shot was well saved by De Gea, but Neymar was quick to get on to the rebound as he struck the ball past the Spanish shot-stopper to put his side in front at Old Trafford. Meanwhile, Marcus Rashford equalised soon following a splendid effort from Anthony Martial, which was saved by Keylor Navas. Aaron was Bissaka was quick to latch on to the ball who then slid it towards Rashford with the striker making no mistake with the ball. But, Marquinhos restored PSG’s lead after firing in a close-range finish in the 69th minute.
