Neymar delighted with 'performance of the season' against Red Star

Neymar described Paris Saint-Germain's 6-1 Champions League victory over Red Star Belgrade as the best of the season on both a personal and a collective level.

The Brazil forward scored twice in quick succession to give PSG the lead at Parc des Princes and, after further goals from Edinson Cavani, Angel Di Maria and Kylian Mbappe, Neymar completed his hat-trick in the 81st minute with a second stunning free-kick of the game.

Victory put PSG back on track in Champions League Group C after they were beaten 3-2 by Liverpool in their opener, and Neymar hailed the team's performance after he took his goal tally to six in his last three matches across all competitions.
