Neymar found the net after the hour mark with a stunning free-kick before Angel Di Maria rounded out the scoring in the dying minutes.

The goal for Mbappe, his eighth in the competition, made him the highest-scoring teen in Champions League history, and the club are off to a flying start to their season having won 11 times in 12 matches in and the Champions League.

"I'd like to act with Mbappé like Messi acted with me," he said to the Brazilian TV.

"I want to help him. He's my buddy."
