CGTN Sports Talk host Hu Zhicheng is joined by senior editor Josh McNally to discuss Brazilian superstar Neymar, who suffered an injury blow in February for the fourth time in a row. And for the third time in four seasons, PSG were deprived of their talisman at the last 16 stage of the Champions League.
Neymar could only watch on from the sidelines as his teammate Kylian Mbappe stole the limelight once again and blew away Barcelona with a five-star performance. What should we do to protect highly skilled players such as Neymar? Will Mbappe take the throne from Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in the coming years?
