NEYMAR IS CONFEDERATIONS CUP GOLDEN BALL WINNER

Neymar was named the best player at the Confederations Cup after helping Brazil  win their third consecutive tournament title following Sunday's emphatic 3-0 victory over reigning world and European champions Spain at the Maracana Stadium.
The 21-year-old striker beat new Barcelona team-mate Andres Iniesta to the Golden Ball award, with fellow Brazilian Paulinho finishing in third place in a vote cast by the world media.
Neymar played an instrumental role in Brazil's run to the final, scoring four goals against Japan, Mexico, Italy, and Spain in the showpiece match last night.
There were wild celebrations in the aftermath of the victory, but Neymar offered a word of caution as attention now turns to the 2014 World Cup next year, urging the country's supporters not to get carried away by their latest demolition of Spain.
