NEYMAR showed off his nifty footwork when he high-fived every mascot hobbling on one leg before Paris Saint-Germain clashed with Bordeaux.
The Brazilian has been struck again by the curse of the metatarsal injury for the second time in a year against Strasbourg last month.
Neymar, 26 was at the Parc de Princes to cheer on his team-mates and before the game took time out to greet the mascots.
And he did not the fact he was on crutches bother him, he just hopped on one leg past all 22 mascots for high-fives all round to make it an extra-special day for the kids.
The PSG attacker is out of next weeks' Champions League last 16 clash with Manchester United.
Meanwhile, PSG boss Thomas Tuchel will be sweating on the fitness of striker Edinson Cavani ahead of Tuesday's trip to Old Trafford.
Cavani scored the only goal of the game from the penalty spot to stretch their lead over Lille to 13 points.
However, the win looks to have come at some cost as the 31-year-old was taken off at half-time a nasty-looking thigh injury.
The Uruguayan will now face a race against time to recover to face in-form Premier League side next week in the vital first leg.
But Tuchel has been boosted by the return to action of Marco Verratti.
Verratti has been sidelined since last month with an ankle knock started tonight home win and was replaced after an hour as a precaution.
