We move to France where the Ligue 1 title holders Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) began their new season against Caen. In Thomas Tuchel's first league game as coach of PSG, Brazil international Neymar would also make his domestic return since suffering a season-ending foot injury in February.
Neymar had 19 goals for the Parisians last season, and got his first of this campaign in the tenth minute in pretty simple fashion.

In the 35th minute, Angel Di Maria patiently waits to set up Adrien Rabiot, who taps it in to make it 2-0 for the champs.
PSG's new keeper Gianluigi Buffon saves an own goal attempt from Thiago Silva in his Ligue 1 debut.
Just before the end, substitute Timothy Weah, the son of former PSG forward and current Liberian President George Weah, poaches his maiden league goal. 3-0 is how it ends.
