There was no VAR and Neymar took full advantage. Neymar got a penalty after a crazy dive inside the box. The referee was deceived and PSG won a penalty against Gamba Osaka.
In the 31st minute, the number 10 cut back near the by-line, an Osaka defender pulled his leg across but made no contact with Neymar and the PSG man threw himself to the floor. The worst of all was that he complained about being injured for a few minutes after the imaginary contact.
Before that, Sarabia had opened the scoring. Neymar scored the second PSG goal from the penalty spot with a good finish. He kept his calm to beat the Gamba Osaka goalkeeper.
The Japanese side pulled one back in the 34th minute through Kurokawa. Three minutes later, Nuno Mendes made it 1-3 and, right on half-time, Leo Messi was given the ball by Neymar from the left flank and he got the fourth.
