NEYMAR came up with the old one-two to help Paris Saint-Germain continue along their merry way that will lead to the Ligue 1 title.
And no one appreciated the victory more that a couple of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!
The brilliant Brazilian scored twice on his return for suspension.
Further goals from Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani ensured the Parisien side stayed nine clear of Monaco at the top of the table.
Neymar took just four minutes on his return for suspension to break the deadlock from close range.
After 17 minutes he set up Mbappe for a simple tap-in. That was the signal for two PSG fans to enter the fan dressed as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
One of them hugged Mbappe, while full-back Dani Alves pretended to pull a sword from his back as he joined in the fun. The strange pitch invasion was thought to be connected to Mbappe’s ‘Donatello’ nickname given to him by his teammates.
The PSG dressing room thinks he is a lookalike of the character of the same name. Giovani Lo Celso hit the post with a curling 35th minute effort as Rennes were kept on the back foot.
But the home side did respond eight minutes into the second half through Firmin Mubele.
Cavani restored the two-goal, though, three minutes later with an eye-catching lob. And just moments Neymar grabbed his second with another close range finish for his tenth goal of the season.
Rennes won a penalty in stoppage time thanks to a clumsy challenge by Presnel Kimpembe, who was red carded.
But Wahbi Khazri blazed his spot kick over the bar.
