João Neves left out for PSG-Lille, ex-Benfica man sees screamer (video) | OneFootball

PSG drew 1-1 in their away match against Lille. João Neves was left out of Luis Enrique's squad due to injury, in a match where Gonçalo Ramos was a starter. The highlight of the match was a free kick expertly taken by Nuno Mendes, formerly of Sporting.

With a starting eleven quite different from the usual, the first half was controlled by the Parisians, albeit somewhat divided. The goals only came in the second half, when the Spanish coach brought on Nuno Mendes, Vitinha and Achraf Hakimi.

At the 66' mark, Nuno Mendes took a free kick that left no chance for Berke Ozer. However, at the 85' mark, Ethan Mbappé, brother of Kylian Mbappé, equalized the match and celebrated like the former PSG player, earning a point for Lille.

In terms of awards with the Paris Saint-Germain jersey, João Neves had a packed year, which proved to be historic for the club. In his debut season with the French team, the former Benfica player won a French league, a French Super Cup, a French Cup and the coveted Champions League and finished 19th in the Ballon d'Or.

In 2025/26, while playing for PSG, Gonçalo Ramos - valued at 40 million euros - has played 10 matches: seven in Ligue 1, two in the Champions League and one in the European Super Cup. In the 573 minutes he was on the pitch, the former Benfica player scored three goals.
