Ladies and Gentlemen, take a seat.
What you’re about to witness is quite possibly the loveliest bit of football you’re going to see this week / this month / this year / in your entire lifetime.
The finishing touch – a relatively straightforward one – was applied by the world’s most expensive footballer, Neymar. Its beauty, however, lies in the build up. Put simply, Paris Saint-Germain have turned counter attacking football into an art form with this move, which (ridiculously) begins with a pass along the line of their own six yard box.
PSG are currently nine points clear in Ligue 1, and were three goals up against Rennes in the French Cup when the home side won a corner. Unai Emery’s team won the ball back and, eight passes later, were celebrating a fourth goal.
Let’s be honest though, there’s really no need to read all this, is there? Just scroll down and watch what is pretty much the most perfect counter attacking goal you’ll ever see.
Yeah, this PSG side are crying out for Fellaini… pic.twitter.com/ykBhSpvI1D
