Neymar became the first Brazilian scorer in the history of the Champions League.
The star of Paris Saint-Germain beat Liverpool on Wednesday to end up on the 31st of the competition during his 51st participation in the league championships and in Barcelona.
Neymar was about to return home after Alisson had denied Edinson Cavani at close range at the end of a quick counterattack launched by the Brazilian striker in his half-court.
