Colombian midfielder James Rodriguez has conceded that Neymar is in "incredible" form ahead of their Copa America clash.

The Barcelona forward was instrumental in Brazil's 2-1 win over Peru in their opening match of the tournament.

Their next match will be against Colombia on Thursday, with Real Madrid's Rodriguez admitting that it will be tough to overcome Brazil, having lost to them in the World Cup quarter-final last year.

Rodriguez is quoted by Goal.com as saying: "Don't mistake this game for a rematch. Neymar is at an incredible level, but they must play well to beat Colombia.

"In football you can win or lose. We always have to be together, with the same spirit we've always had."

Colombia lost their opening Copa match 1-0 to Venezuela.
