Luis Suarez didn't start the game very well as he looked a bit tired and jaded, but he grew into the match as the proceedings went on. The Uruguayan hasn't been at his best in the last couple of weeks for Barcelona, but he put in a shift against Villarreal.

He scored the goal which completed the comeback for Barcelona and it was one hell of a strike, with his left foot even. From a Barcelona corner, the ball came to Suarez at the edge of the box and the Uruguayan pounced on the loose ball with a low drive into the back of the net.

Suarez needs to keep his form up as Barcelona welcome Atletico Madrid on Sunday.


#1 Malcom

Malcom had his best performance in a Barcelona shirt since joining from Bordeaux this season. It was a brilliant performance from the Brazilian, and he has been looking in terrific form since the last couple of weeks.

He assisted Barcelona's first goal which was scored by Coutinho and he turned scorer for Barcelona's second after he headed in Vidal's brilliant cross.

The young Brazilian with this performance might have sealed his place for the starting XI against Atletico Madrid on Sunday, and that would be fully deserved.
