After a shaky performance in the first half of the match, Barcelona fought their way back to keep their unbeaten streak going by blasting Athletic Bilbao 3-1. Even if Los Leones came close to shocking the hosts, their lack of accuracy in front of goal helped Luis Enrique's team in order to make the tournament's semifinals for the second year in a row.
But as if fate had wanted it that way, Neymar was the brightest star among those who played at Camp Nou today. The Brazilian ace was the most threatening player for Athletic all day long, and he capped his performance with a beautiful goal into the back of Iago Herrerin's net.

Still opponents don't get it, you can't stop Neymar from dribbling you by being violent. You can only stop him by actually defending well.

All Neymar needs to think about is what speech he's going to make when he picks up the Ballon d'or. #hesgotthejuicerightnow
