Barcelona are the 2015 UEFA football league champions. Minutes ago at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany, Neymar flashed home a 96th minute goal to complete the rout of Italy’s Juventus in the grand final of the EUFA Champions League.
The Spanish giants had made known their intentions from the fourth minute of play when Ivan Rakitic rifled home the opener from eight yards out.
On the restart for the second half, Juventus canceled out the advantage, when Alvaro Morata fired home from close range in the 55th minute after the goalie had parried Carlos Tevez’ shot.
Luis Suarez, however, restored Barca’s lead in the 68th minute before Neymar made victor even more sure with the injury time icing on the cake.
