Neymar scored a hat-trick as Barcelona took the Spanish La Liga title race to the final weekend, but it remains advantage Real Madrid in the final week of the campaign.

Barca defeated Las Palmas 4-1 with Brazilian international Neymar grabbing three and Luis Suarez the other in an accomplished display that took their goals tally for the season to a remarkable 112 in La Liga alone.
