Neymar "very happy" with return

Barcelona forward Neymar has revealed that he was "very happy" with his scoring return to the side after a month-long spell on the sidelines with an ankle injury.

The Brazil international came off the bench to score from 20 yards in the 6-0 victory over Rayo Vallecano in La Liga on Saturday.

"I'm very happy to be able to play and I'm very happy that I scored," Neymar told Barca's official website.

"This month has been long, I was very eager to play. I'd give the team a nine out of 10. We played a really good game, but you can always improve."

Neymar could start in Barcelona's Champions League clash against Manchester City on Tuesday night.
