Barcelona vs. Roma: Goals, Highlights From Gamper Trophy Match
It didn't take long for Lionel Messi and Neymar to find their attacking stride.
The duo had been off on holiday for much of the pre-season after competing in the Copa America, but in their first game back with Barcelona, they showed they have minimal, if any, rust to shake off.
Messi delivered a cross-pitch pinpoint pass to Andres Iniesta, who found Neymar, who coolly rounded Roma goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny.
The day became eventful for Messi, who added his own goal after helping start Neymar's strike.
He also got into it with Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa and appeared to headbutt him.
