Barcelona coach Martino delighted with Messi, Neymar combination for winner

Barcelona coach Tata Martino was delighted with Neymar and Lionel Messi in victory over Sevilla.

The pair combined superbly to set up Alexis Sanchez's injury-time winner.

"Neymar played an impeccable match because not only did he go forward but he also defended," said Martino.

On Messi, he added: "Messi started to get involved in favourable plays in the second half and he was very dangerous."
