João Neves has swimming in other waters than competition for several months, and the Portuguese international has still demonstrated this evening. If adversity is also to be highlighted – without lacking respect in Toulouse – the former Benfica midfielder confirmed that he had left on bases as high as last season, when he encroached the decisive passes.
This time, the 20 -year -old has swapped the passer's cap for goalscores, and the result is clear: Neves offered the first hat this evening of his career, and certainly one of the most beautiful in the recent history of Ligue 1. “I am very happy for this hat -trick but as I always say, victory is more important than goals. This is my first hat -trick, I will remember it forever ”he smiled, humbly.
A first in career in career
He then added to the microphone of League1+ :: “This is something that I love to do in training, I also do it at the beach. I like this kind of acrobatic gestures, and if I can do it in training, why could I not reproduce it in a match? But the most important thing was the victory, we made a very good match, even if it was a little crazy at the end with the 2 goals conceded. ”
They will ultimately have no impact on the judgment of the individual performance of the Portuguese, elected man of the match by the foot transfer Mercato with the note of 10/10. A perfect match, which rewards the excellent shape of the pocket momentum, among the best on the planet in this year 2025.
