João Neves scored a pair of goals for Paris Saint-Germain and the world’s best team overwhelmed one of the game’s greatest players, embarrassing Lionel Messi and Inter Miami 4-0 in the round of 16 at the Club World Cup.

The France international, 28, joined PSG in August 2023 and this season was his best-ever in front of goal, scoring over 30 times but has yet to feature at the Club World Cup and will look to shake off a hamstring strain ahead of Sunday's clash with Inter Miami.

For all the hullabaloo and hype surrounding Lionel Messi’s return to Atlanta for the Club World Cup round of 16 clash against PSG, the Inter Miami maestro wasn’t the only player, past or present, with ties to the French side.
