This Sunday, Paris Saint-Germain faced Inter Miami in the Club World Cup Round of 8 (4-0, PSG/Inter Miami highlights). João Neves, the 20-year-old midfielder who scored twice in the match, spoke to PSG TV about the success. His comments came ahead of Bayern Munich’s 4-2 victory over Flamengo.
Neves “We’re hoping for the best possible performance.”
“It’s my first time, my first double! So I’m very happy, even if for me the most important thing is victory. We don’t know our opponent yet, but whether it’s Flamengo or Bayern Munich, it’s going to be a great game. We’re hoping for the best possible performance. I think it will be a good match.”
Another step forward for the club from the capital, who are now through to the quarter-finals of the competition, where they will meet Bayern Munich. A match that promises to be more difficult than the last 8. PSG obviously have what it takes to beat the Germans, but they’ll have to dig deep to find the intensity they need to win.
João Neves continues to build on his XXL season. This brace also shows his ability to be decisive in important matches, as he was against Manchester City in the Champions League during the fantastic 4-2 victory at the Parc des Princes.
