The savior is called Neymar: Saturday, the Brazilian allowed Paris Saint-Germain to win against Strasbourg, after a poor game technically (1-0). And with the way, since the "Ney" scored this goal of an acrobatic turn to a center came from the left.

Neymar had not walked the lawn of the Parc des Princes since May 4 and the atmosphere was heavy at the beginning of the afternoon. It must be said that the soap opera Neymar annoyed a good part of the supporters, who conspired his name to the announcement of the composition of the teams.

Whistled with each balloon

The result has not necessarily been softer for the most expensive player in history. Insulting songs descended from the stands and a banner urging his father to sell him to Vila Mimosa, the prostitutes' quarter in Rio, was deployed. He was also whistled with every ball he touched.

Thank you Neymar, everything is forgiven," greets a spectator. "Before, he was doing anything, he wanted to leave the club ... I prefer him now," says a young supporter.

Neymar "disrespected" Paris

In front of the press, Neymar preferred to irony on the versatility of the Parisian supporters. "Those who whistle me, they are the same who rose in the stands to shout goal! It is true I wanted to leave, but the page is turned, now I am a player of the PSG," says the "Ney". The path of redemption is still long, especially for the Ultras, but Neymar has shown that it remains more than ever indispensable to Paris Saint-Germain.
