Neymar Freezes Goalkeeper with Perfect Free Kick

Neymar left Sevilla keeper Sergio Rico completely frozen on this brilliant free kick.

Neymar gave Barcelona a 2-0 lead over Sevilla with a brilliant, curling free kick just about 30 minutes into the match. He lifted and wrapped the ball over the jumping Sevilla wall and stuck it right inside the top corner of the goal. Sergio Rico was rooted to the ground and reduced to amazed spectator like the rest of us.

Of course, Ray Hudson nailed the call, too. "Trying to defend them in free kicks is playing poker with a witch, you're gonna lose!" Or perhaps you prefer: "and the touch, is like a lover's kiss." Either way, we're all winners here.

NEYMAR. THAT"S RIGHT NEYMAR with fantastic free kick. 0-2 @FCBarcelona #beINLaLiga #SevillaFCB http://t.co/iK9iig0yJ6
