Suarez Strike Hands Barca Title Advantage
The Catalans took a 20th-minute lead thanks to Jeremy Mathieu’s
header, only for Cristiano Ronaldo to equalise just past the half-hour
mark with his 42nd goal of the season in all competitions.
However, Luis Enrique’s side claimed what could turn out to be a vital victory thanks to Luis Suarez’s 57th-minute strike, the Uruguayan’s first-ever El Clasico goal.
It was Barcelona, as befits the home side, who made the faster
start as they went in search of the win that would give them clear
daylight in the title race.
However, despite bossing the early exchanges - as one would expect from a team with 17 victories to their name in the previous 18 matches since surprisingly losing at Real Sociedad back in January - it was Real who created the first real opening of the evening.
