Luis Enrique: 'Neymar hurt his ankle'

Barcelona coach Luis Enrique reveals that Neymar was substituted after hurting his ankle in their 5-0 win over Levante.

Barcelona coach Luis Enrique has explained the decision behind Neymar's substitution as his side hammered Levante 5-0 on Sunday evening.

Barca went back to the top of La Liga with a convincing victory, but the Brazil international was brought off as a precaution after injuring his ankle.

"He hurt the ankle he had injured previously, so we decided to take him off," he told AS after the game.

"All the forwards have to work and combine and find spaces. This season has just started. There will be a lot of [changes] in the table."

Barca have won all four games this season.
