Neymar Jr.'s return to the pitch has been a major boost for Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) as they dominated their opponents in the opening match of Ligue 1 round 20.

The Brazilian forward, who had missed the first two matches of the season due to injury, returned with a bang on Tuesday night, scoring twice and providing an assist as PSG beat Montpellier 4-0 at Parc des Princes.

The goals came in quick succession, Neymar's first coming after just three minutes into the game. The second came four minutes later, when he found the back of the net again, this time from the penalty spot.

It was a dominant performance by PSG, who took control of the match from the start and never looked like letting Montpellier back into it. They were clinical in front of goal, with Neymar's strike coming off the foot of his team-mate Kylian Mbappe.

It was a perfect start to the season for PSG, who have already established themselves as one of the top teams in France. They will be looking to continue their winning run when they take on Rennes next week, but for now, they can celebrate the return of Neymar and the impact he is having on the team.
