28' GOAL! Barcelona 1-0 Atletico (Suarez)
GOALLLLLLLLLLLLL!!! SUAREZ GETS THE BREAKTHROUGH!!!! 1-0 BARCELONA!!! Out of the blue the home side lead the pack. Suarez collects the ball on the edge of the container and takes a touch to make space for a strike on his correct foot. He twists his exertion towards the base corner where it beats the outstretched hand of Oblak to nestle into the back of the net. The Uruguayan does it again for Barca.
28' GOAL! Barcelona 2-0 Atletico (Messi)
GOALLLLLLLLLL!!!! MESSI MAKES IT TWO!!! BARCELONA 2-0!!! The dam has broken and Messi surely verifies the success and potentially the LaLiga crown for Barca with a low strike. The Argentine discovered space on the correct flank and flooded into within channel. Fortune was his ally as Gimenez simply lost out in the tackle, in spite of kicking it into high gear a foot to the ball. Indeed, even with a horde of players surrouding him, Messi picked his spot, finding the base corner.
