The Brazil­ian was whistl­ed by his own fans for denyin­g Cavani the chance to break Ibrahi­movic's PSG goals record­PARIS: Lyon will look to inject fresh life into the Ligue 1 title race at home to Paris Saint-Germain on Sunday when the focus will once again fall on world record signing Neymar. The Brazilian scored four times in Wednesday’s 8-0 rout of Dijon but was whistled by his own fans after taking a late penalty and denying Edinson Cavani the chance to break Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s all-time PSG goals record. Now if it’s just a question of the record; if it’s not (on Wednesday), it will be on Sunday. He will smash the record,” said PSG defender Thomas Meunier of Cavani’s history-making aspirations. A section of supporters jeered when the Uruguayan wasn’t presented the opportunity by Neymar to eclipse that mark, and Meunier admitted he found that reaction disappointing.
