Neymar warms up for Champions League quarter-final second leg against Juventus with indoor keep-up session

NEYMAR has been been fine-tuning his footwork away from the training ground before Barcelona attempt another historic Champions League comeback.

The La Liga giants trail Juventus 3-0 from the first leg as they host the Seria A leaders in the Champions League quarter-finals tonight.

Neymar went through his flicks and tricks indoors as he eyes a repeat of the incredible 6-1 Camp Nou victory in the last-16 that overturned Paris Saint-Germain’s 4-0 first-leg advantage.

The Brazilian superstar levelled that tie on aggregate with a free-kick and penalty in the last few minutes.

And now he has revealed the shocking words that went through his mind as he prepared for his 90th minute spot-kick.

He said: “I remember when I grabbed the ball to take it. I heard people saying there were five more minutes to play.

“At that point I thought, ‘F***, you’ve got to score this, or you’re screwed!’

"When I scored, it was a relief. That really got the crowd going. Then came the historic goal."

Indeed, it was Neymar himself who teed up Sergi Roberto for the 95th minute clincher - the substitute's first goal of the season.

This evening, though, Neymar must again show why many pundits believe he has at least drawn level in another major contest - the battle with club-mate Lionel Messi and Real Madrid superstar Cristiano Ronaldo to be the world's best player.

And anything less than an attacking masterclass will surely see Barca slip out to a Juve side who lead the Italian league by eight points after conceding just 20 goals in 32 matches.
