Euro round-up: Messi stunner sets PSG on their way

Lionel Messi scored twice - including an acrobatic over-head kick - as Paris St Germain opened their Ligue 1 campaign with a commanding 5-0 win at Clermont. Neymar put PSG ahead after just nine minutes before then setting up Achraf Hakimi to slot home a second. Marquinhos nodded in a Neymar free-kick to make it 3-0 before half-time.

With 10 minutes left, Neymar crafted PSG's fourth goal when he played in Messi. The Argentina maestro capped a fine team performance when he ran on to a pass from Leandro Paredes into the Clermont area, collected the ball on his chest and flicked it up to score with a perfectly-executed bicycle kick. Earlier, Monaco were 2-1 winners at Strasbourg with goals either side of the break from Krepin Diatta, firing in a long-range volley, and Sofiane Diop.

Strasbourg saw what would have been a stoppage-time equaliser ruled out by VAR for an offside in the build-up.Borussia Dortmund started life after Erling Haaland with a 1-0 win over Bayer Leverkusen in their opening game of the new Bundesliga season at Signal Iduna Park. Haaland's £51.1million switch to Manchester City was the summer's headline European transfer - and Dortmund were in need of a response after champions Bayern Munich had laid down a marker with a 6-1 win at Eintracht Frankfurt on Friday night. Marco Reus settled any early nerves when he broke the deadlock in the 10th minute.
