Xavi: Neymar outshone Ronaldo in Champions League showdown

Barcelona legend Xavi felt Neymar outshone Cristiano Ronaldo despite PSG's Champions League defeat to Real Madrid.

Ronaldo wrote the headlines with two goals, but Xavi thinks that Neymar was man of the match.

"They said that Cristiano was still better than Neymar," he noted.

"No, no, it's unfair.

"What did Ronaldo do in the game, scored a penalty and a knee goal...

"But what about the dangerous situations created by Neymar? And the counterattacks that he launched, the fear that he sowed in Madrid?"
