Quick-Footed on the field, slick-fingered off it.
Neymar is more of an artist at his best for PSG and Brazil but he switched to Coldplay’s “The Scientist” to display his gifts for piano-playing.

The £198million superstar is putting the rock in crock as he recovers from his third injury of the season.
and although Neymar can’t quite strike a note as well as he can a football his piano-dabbling must be a relaxing interlude from fitness frustrations.
The 27-year-old was in tears earlier this month after hurting his hamstring in a 1-1 international friendly with Nigeria.

and just this week Neymar got more grief as fellow PSG frontman Mauro icardi mocked him on social media for wearing a flamboyant coat.
Neymar’s red-and-black checked number – “complemented” by red trainers – looked like he was in a one-upmanship contest with Joseph over his amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.
and icardi, who netted twice in Sunday’s 4-0 defeat of Marseille, was unwilling to keep his verdict buttoned up.
The argentine, 26, posted: “Did you bring your blanket? Come on!”
To which Neymar replied: “it’s cold my brother. 2 goals tonight. You are a crack.”
Presumably as in crackshot.
Something Kylian Mbappe also is, as the French World Cup winner hit the last two goals when PSG went eight points clear at the weekend when they struck four times against Marseille in the first 44 minutes.
But Neymar is also on pitch when copying another song from British rockers Coldplay, after turning his hand to the piano.
Nonetheless, the former Barcelona ace, who is linked with his old club more often than he gets injured, will hope he has just a few weeks to focus on his musical skills.
That’s because Barca medics predict Neymar will be fully fit again before the end of November.
