Neymar scored twice as Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) secured their first Ligue 1 lead with a 2-0 win over Lyon at Parc des Princes on Sunday.
The Brazil forward was in fine form, scoring the opener in the 44th minute before adding his second in the 77th to ensure PSG maintained their four-point lead over Marseille.
PSG dominated possession throughout the match and were rewarded for their efforts with two goals from Neymar, who is now level with Thierry Henry on six Ligue 1 titles.
It was a well-deserved victory for PSG, who have been heavily linked with a move away from the club this summer after failing to secure Champions League football.
However, they will be hoping that Neymar's double can help them maintain their title challenge and push for a top-four finish.
Meanwhile, Lyon, who had won their last three matches, struggled to create any meaningful chances against PSG's formidable defence.
They were forced to settle for a disappointing draw, which leaves them just one point behind Marseille in fourth place.
Overall, it was another strong performance from PSG, who showed why they are considered one of the best teams in Europe. With Neymar in such good form, there is no doubt that they will continue to be a force to be reckoned with in the coming seasons.
