Neymar equals Madrid legend Puskas' record in Copa del Rey final

Neymar scored Barcelona's second goal in a Copa del Rey-clinching 3-1 win over Alaves on Saturday, becoming the first player to score in three consecutive finals since Real Madrid great Ferenc Puskas.

Barcelona & Madrid to meet in Supercopa

Barca beat Athletic Bilbao in 2015 and Sevilla in 2016 to clinch back-to-back titles, with the Brazil international netting in both games.

And as they collected a third straight Copa, Neymar was again on the scoresheet, putting Barca 2-1 up at the Vicente Calderon after Theo Hernandez had cancelled out Lionel Messi's opener.

The last player to score in three consecutive finals was Madrid's Puskas, between 1960 and 1962, although his side twice lost to rivals Atletico Madrid before beating Sevilla.
