PSG whitewash Dijon 8-0

By Daily Sports on January 18, 2018

 Neymar announced his return from a rib injury by scoring five goals for PSG, while Edinson Cavani scored another three goals to give the Ligue 1 leaders a clear 8-0 victory against Dijon on Wednesday.

Angel Di Maria struck twice inside the opening quarter-hour at the Parc des Princes before the Argentine provided the cross for Cavani to net his 156th PSG goal.

Kylian Mbappe piled on further misery for the visitors 13 minutes from time before Neymar notched his fourth of the evening from the penalty spot – denying Cavani the chance to make club history and eliciting whistles from home supporters.

"(Cavani) is our goalscorer and he's improved a lot here. The team helped him to achieve this individual mark," said PSG coach Unai Emery, who was quick to defend Neymar's decision to take the spot-kick.

"I think Neymar took the penalty because it was also a good day for him. We're happy with it. But there will be lots more chances for Cavani to score more goals."
