Barca dominated at a sun-drenched Camp Nou but were unable to make a breakthrough until Neymar ran clear onto Messi’s threaded pass and dinked the ball past the onrushing goalkeeper Gorka Iraizoz for a 79th-minute lead. Five minutes later, Messi made one of his scintillating runs down the right and clipped the ball across to an unmarked Neymar, who had time to steady himself before sidefooting clinically into the bottom corner. 

The Brazil captain is coming back from an ankle injury and the new Barcelona coach, Luis Enrique, held him back until the 63rd minute, when he replaced the teenage Spain forward Munir El Haddadi.
