Paris: Paris St-Germain (PSG) continued their perfect start to the French Ligue 1 season with a thrilling victory over Toulouse in a match that featured spectacular goals and four penalties, all fueled by a breathtaking individual display from Joo Neves. The 20-year-old Portuguese international scored two remarkable overhead kicks within a seven-minute span to set the tone for a dominant attacking performance. Neves opened the scoring with a stunning acrobatic finish into the top corner, before Bradley Barcola quickly doubled the lead. Neves then added a third with another spectacular effort, controlling Achraf Hakimi’s cross before powering his finish past goalkeeper Guillaume Restes.

According to Oman News Agency, Toulouse’s defensive struggles continued when Ousmane Demb©l© converted a penalty after D©sir© Dou© was fouled in the area. The hosts showed signs of life when Charlie Cresswell-recently a European Under-21 Championship winner with England-turned in a rebound from close range.

The match took further dramatic turns from the penalty spot. Toulouse’s Cristian Casseres Jr. saw two spot-kicks saved by PSG keeper Lucas Chevalier, the first of which was retaken due to the goalkeeper being off his line. After the break, Demb©l© scored his second penalty of the game after Barcola was fouled.

Neves completed his hat-trick in the 78th minute with a powerful strike from the edge of the box into the top corner. Toulouse scored two late consolation goals through Yann Gboho and Alexis Vossah, but it was not enough to prevent PSG from securing all three points and maintaining their position at the top of Ligue 1.

In other league action, Lille produced a second-half display to rout Lorient 7-1, scoring five goals after the 77th minute.
