Neymar scored two hattricks as Paris Saint-Germain beat Nantes 5-2 to extend their lead at the top of the Ligue 1 table.
The Brazilian forward, who has been linked with a move away from PSG this summer, opened the scoring early on before adding two more goals in the second half to secure all three points for his side.
The win was a much-needed boost for PSG after they suffered defeat against Nice earlier in the week and it will give them confidence heading into the international break.
Meanwhile, Nantes struggled to keep up with PSG's pace throughout the game and were ultimately unable to find a way past their opponents' defense.
Despite being behind 4-1, Nantes did manage to score twice in the final ten minutes to make things interesting, but it was too little, too late as PSG held on for a comfortable victory.
Overall, it was a dominant display from PSG as they continue to show why they are considered one of the best teams in Europe. With Neymar scoring two hattricks, it is clear that he is still a key player for the team and will be crucial in any future matches.
