Neymar matches Messi with Champions League feat against Atalanta

Neymar has etched his name into the history books after playing a lively part in Paris Saint-Germain's dramatic 2-1 win over Atalanta in the Champions League quarter-finals.

With his side 1-0 down heading into injury time, the former Barcelona star claimed the assist for Marquinhos' equaliser before Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting scored a late winner for Thomas Tuchel's side.

While it wasn't a perfect performance from Neymar, who missed a golden chance to open the scoring in the first five minutes, he was clearly determined to ensure PSG finally progressed to the final four of the competition.
