Neymar congratulated Roberto Firmino after he scored the winner to sink his PSG side at Anfield last night.
However, substitute Firmino had the final say, twisting and turning Marquinhos in stoppage time before slotting past Alphonse Areola and giving Jurgen Klopp’s side a winning start to their Champions League campaign.
And though Neymar will have been disappointed with the result and his showing on Merseyside, he still felt the need to congratulate his Brazilian teammate after the game while he was in the mixed zone.
Firmino was a doubt for the game after being forced off against Spurs at the weekend with a nasty eye injury caused by Jan Vertonghen at Wembley.
Daniel Sturridge deputised well and scored the opener but the former Hoffenheim man’s services were required and he well and truly delivered when called upon.

Neymar, meanwhile, was very ineffective for the visitors and a bad night for him was capped off by him being mugged off by Sadio Mane. He sent him back to Santos.
