Neymar recently became the world’s most expensive transfer ever. While it will be difficult for Neymar to truly “live up” to the contract, he’s at least off to a terrific start in Ligue 1 action.
The 25-year-old scored in his PSG debut last weekend, and followed it up with a remarkable performance on Sunday against Toulouse.
Neymar scored two goals and had two assists in PSG’s 6-2 victory over Toulouse. And the second goal was particularly absurd, as Neymar schooled five defenders with some amazing moves — with his back to the goal — before the kick:

Toulose’s (lack of) defensive effort certainly helped there, but that was still an absolutely ridiculous goal that showed off Neymar’s skills very well. So did this play:
