Clermont vs. PSG result: Messi bicycle goal, Neymar's three assists ... (Sporting News AU)

Lionel Messi scored a spectacular bicycle goal and Neymar got a hat trick of assists as PSG opened its Ligue 1 title defense with a resounding 5-0 win over ...

Andric is up against two PSG defenders on a high cross in the box, but Presnel Kimpembe looks to put a forearm in his back and Andric goes down. No whistle from the referee, and no VAR intervention. Sarabia will once again replace Mbappe (adductor injury) on the forward line, as Vitinha makes his Ligue 1 debut in midfield. 43rd min.: Nuno Mendes makes like Hakimi and dashes down the left into the Clermont box on the left side. PSG don't have Kylian Mbappe available, but they're still having their way with Clermont Foot. Neymar is inspired, Messi is engaged, and it looks like the entire team is having fun out there. Neymar delivers from the left on a set piece and Marquinhos is all alone to head home! 3-0 PSG. The set piece was caused by a Jim Allevinah foul on Vitinha which earned the Clermont player a yellow. PSG were dialed in from the start. And that allows the team block to be very compact and to win the ball [in that density of players]." Messi is fouled about 20 yards from goal and takes the set piece himself but it's off the wall. Messi and Neymar set the example with their selfless running throughout the match. The team kept a solid shape throughout the match and goalkeeper Gigi Donnarumma barely had anything to do against an inferior Clermont team.
