In their most recent game against Monaco over the weekend, Neymar spoke to Kylian Mbappe before he took the penalty, according to Paris Saint-Germain head coach Christophe Galtier.

Galtier claimed that Mbappe and Neymar were the PSG team's top two options for taking penalties.

In response to claims that Mbappe and Neymar had different opinions on the subject, he remarked this when describing the PSG penalty takers' hierarchy.

Kevin Volland's goal gave PSG the lead in the 20th minute. However, PSG had numerous opportunities throughout the game but had to wait until the 70th minute to draw even.

Neymar was fouled in the box by Monaco’s Guillermo Maripan and after a VAR check, a penalty was awarded.

The Brazilian international had a brief conversation with Mbappe and then proceeded to take the penalty and score.

After the game, Galtier was asked why Neymar took the penalty over Mbappe and he replied (via PSGhub): “The decision was Mbappe number 1 and Ney number 2 on this match, I saw they discussed and Ney shot it, and scored, Kylian congratulated him.”
