Five talking points from Barcelona’s draw at Celta

There’s no doubt Saturday’s result was a huge disappointment for Barcelona, but one bright spot was Luis Suarez finding the back of the net for the first time since returning from injury.

His first goal was put on a plate for him after a brilliant free-kick from Lionel Messi. While everyone was expecting the captain to shoot he simply plonked it on Suarez’s head instead.

The second goal was a lethal finish from the Uruguayan. Again Messi was the creator, finding Suarez in the box to instinctively turn and find the far corner.

Riqui stakes his claim

Riqui Puig’s name being on the starting XI was a welcome sight after his impressive performance in midweek and the youngster did not disappoint again.
