The La Liga and Copa del Rey winners last lifted the European Cup in 2011, one year before the 23-year-old joined the Catalan outfit from boyhood club Santos.
Legendary compatriot Ronaldo failed to lift the trophy during his illustrious career, but Neymar is determined not to let history repeat itself. He said: “I’m very anxious. Ronaldo did not win the Champions League, which shows how difficult it is. We have the chance to win and I will do my all to win the title. The team is happy. There’s a good atmosphere, good for work and now we’re concentrating on the final. From the moment that we saw that things were tough for us, we got together and said: ‘We have to win for ourselves.”
