The front page of Diario Sport, one of Catalonia's two sports newspapers, ran with a picture in today's edition of a smiling Luis Suarez, the instigator of Barcelona's match-winning goal against Manchester United in their first-leg UEFA Champions League tie, and Lionel Messi about to embrace. Above the exultant players was the headline: "A most delightful victory".
The phrase is a play on Messi's maiden public speech as Barcelona team captain. Back in August Barcelona's new signings for the season—Arthur, Clement Lenglet, Arturo Vidal, all of whom featured last night as well as Malcom—were presented at the Camp Nou.
