# Paris Saint-Germain Thrashes Strasbourg in Ligue 1 Round 10, Neymar Jr. Scores Double
Paris Saint-Germain delivered a dominant performance in their Ligue 1 clash against Strasbourg on Saturday, securing a 4-1 victory. The match, played at the Stade de la Meinau, saw the Parisians extend their lead at the top of the table with a convincing win.
### Neymar Jr. Nets Double as PSG Shine
The highlight of the match was Neymar Jr.'s impressive double, as he scored twice and played a pivotal role in creating chances for his teammates. The Brazilian star opened the scoring in the 12th minute with a clinical finish, slotting home after being played through by Marco Verratti. Neymar added his second goal in the 63rd minute, this time with a powerful strike from outside the box, leaving the Strasbourg defense helpless.
###Mbappé Also Contributes to the Goal Rush
Kylian Mbappé also made significant contributions, scoring the third goal of the match in the 54th minute with a well-taken shot. The young French striker has been in excellent form this season and continues to be a key asset for Mauricio Pochettino’s side. Defensively, Paris Saint-Germain were solid, with Marquinhos and Presnel Kimpembe imposing themselves in the middle.
###Strasbourg’s Resilience Fails to Save the Day
Strasbourg, despite putting up a fight, struggled to break down Paris Saint-Germain’s well-organized defense. Their only goal came through a penalty converted by Kevin Vardy in the 41st minute, but it was insufficient to turnaround the game. The visitors’ defense, which has been a strength this season, was overrun by the attacking trio of Neymar, Mbappé, and Wissam Ben Yedder.
###A Win That Keeps Paris in the Title Race
This victory strengthens Paris Saint-Germain’s position at the top of Ligue 1. With five wins in a row, they remain firmly in contention for the title. The team’s depth and attacking options continue to be a nightmare for their opponents, and the return of key players like Sergio Ramos and Danilo could further bolster their defense.
###Conclusion
Paris Saint-Germain’s 4-1 win against Strasbourg was a comprehensive performance, showcasing their attacking prowess and defensive solidity. Neymar Jr.’s double, combined with contributions from Mbappé and others, ensures that the capital club remains a force to be reckoned with in French football. With the title race heating up, Paris Saint-Germain will look to maintain this momentum as they aim for a historic treble.
