2014 Barcelona Away – Neymar Jr #11 Medium

The 2013/14 season was a dramatic and transitional campaign for FC Barcelona, one marked by managerial change, inconsistency, and the first year of Neymar Jr. at the club.

• La Liga: Barcelona fought until the final matchday, finishing 2nd with 87 points, just behind Atlético Madrid. The season ended with a decisive title showdown at the Camp Nou (1–1 draw vs. Atlético) — a result that handed Atlético the title.

• Copa del Rey: Barcelona reached the final but lost 2–1 to Real Madrid, with Gareth Bale scoring his iconic solo run goal.

• UEFA Champions League: Barça progressed to the quarterfinals but were eliminated by Atlético Madrid (2–1 on aggregate).

• Supercopa de España: They did secure silverware early in the season, winning the Spanish Super Cup on away goals against Atlético Madrid.

• Managerial Situation: The season was led by Gerardo “Tata” Martino, who replaced Tito Vilanova (who stepped down due to health issues). Martino’s pragmatic style often clashed with Barcelona’s possession identity, and he left at the end of the season.

The 2013/14 away kit was one of Barcelona’s most striking modern designs, featuring the Catalan “Senyera” flag across the jersey — a bold statement of identity and pride.

2. Player’s Impact – Neymar Jr. 2013/14 Season

Neymar Jr., freshly arrived from Santos for a high-profile transfer in the summer of 2013, made his debut season at Barcelona wearing the 2013/14 Senyera Away Kit among others.

• Appearances: 41 matches across all competitions.

• Goals/Assists: 15 goals and 15 assists, showcasing his immediate ability to adapt to European football.

• Memorable Performances:

  • Scored in El Clásico on his Camp Nou debut (October 2013), a 2–1 victory over Real Madrid.

  • Netted twice against Celtic in the Champions League.

  • Key contributor in Copa del Rey, scoring 3 goals en route to the final.

• Role in the Team: Neymar alternated between left wing and forward roles, providing flair, dribbling, and link-up play with Lionel Messi and Alexis Sánchez. His first season was about adaptation, but he demonstrated the star quality that would define his Barcelona years.

Neymar’s arrival marked the beginning of a new attacking era, laying the foundation for the Messi–Suárez–Neymar (MSN) trio that would dominate world football the following year.
