(Reuters) - With sublime control, a back heel flick, a pirouette and a sweet volleyed finish, Neymar fashioned a glorious goal at the Nou Camp on Sunday to rekindle memories of Barcelona's greatest Brazilian wizards.

Neymar's second goal in the 3-0 win over Villarreal took the breath away, particularly echoing the heyday of Ronaldinho, the last Brazilian to turn the grand stadium into his own personal art gallery.
