Neymar Is Electric - Enrique

Barcelona coach Luis Enrique described four-goal hero Neymar as "electric" following a 5-2 win over Rayo Vallecano on Saturday. The Catalans reacted to conceding a Javi Guerra opener via the Brazilian, who won and scored two penalties before adding a quick-fire brace late in an entertaining affair that further strikes from Luis Suarez and Jozabed wrapped up.
