Barcelona forward Neymar attributed his four goal haul in Barcelona's 5-2 win against Rayo Vallecano on Saturday to constant practice, although he refused to give up his exact methods.
The treble winners recovered from conceding Javi Guerra's 15th-minute opener as an inspired Neymar turned the game on its head with two penalties before completing his exploits with a quick-fire brace just after the hour mark.
Luis Suarez then added a fifth and Jozabed got one back for the visitors, but it was the Brazilian who grabbed the headlines as Barca moved second behind Real Madrid, level on points with their rivals.
"I cannot explain how I do things, it would give away clues," Neymar was quoted as saying by AS.
"Everything is born from practicing many times."
The victory came after Luis Enrique's side had lost two of their previous three league outings - going down to Celta Vigo and Sevilla prior to the international break - and Neymar revealed how visitors Rayo stunned them by going ahead at Camp Nou.
"All teams and rivals are complicated. I commend Rayo for the shock they gave us," the 23-year-old continued.
"We all worked well and ensured the points stayed at home.
"I am very happy with the victory and the way we played. Rayo are a great team and we struggled to play them."
