  • Neymar scored the only goal as Paris Saint-Germain shared the spoils after conceding a late equalizer
  • The Brazilian continued his goal-scoring form from midweek when he scored a cheeky goal
  • But before PSG's clash at the Parc des Princes, Neymar proved why he is rated among the best footballers of the modern era with a sublime freekick

Kylian Mbappe and Neymar Junior appear to have buried the hatchet after their early season feud.

The PSG duo have literally become the best of friends since the return of club football after the World Cup break and have translated their bromance onto the pitch as well.

Earlier in the week, the pair combined to a devastating effect when they seamlessly linked up to wreak havoc against amateur club Pays de Cassel in the Coupe de France, per PSGTalk.

Neymar stepped up to perfect his freekick before the game, underlining why he is touted as one of the most gifted players in the modern game.

The 30-year-old smashed an inch-perfect freekick which zoomed straight into the top corner. His effort left everyone drooling including Mbappe who was left in awe of Neymar's set-piece brilliance.

Below is the video:

Mbappe puts Neymar in trouble

Kylian Mbappe was caught in a mischievous moment during PSG's first team tour of the club's new training base in Poissy, Paris.

The Golden Boot winner at the 2022 World Cup was filmed harassing his coach Christophe Galtier.

In the hilarious video making the rounds on social media, seen by Sports Brief, Mbappe who was standing directly behind Galtier, mischievously hit the head of his coach, who gave a stern look at Neymar.

Mbappe, Neymar combine beautifully

Sports Brief earlier reported that when Neymar and Kylian Mbappe are in their element, it's very hard to stop them.

The duo proved that when they combined for Paris Saint-Germain's second goal against Pays de Cassel in the French Cup.

The Brazilian found the Frenchman before bursting forward, with Mbappe then picking out Neymar despite coming under pressure from the defenders.
