Barcelona's night against Almeria was as pleasant as expected, with two goals by Luis Suarez, one by Messi and the other one courtesy of Marc Bartra. Against a depleted Andalucian side, Los Blaugranas added three more points to their season total, keeping them away from Real Madrid with only eight games to be played in the 2014-2015 La Liga season.
Suarez, the former Liverpool and Ajax striker, was key to his team's performance. Scoring the second and fourth goals of the evening, "El Matador" was always a threat for the team coached by Sergi Barjuan, who wasn't able to win his first game coaching Los Rojiblancos. Suarez was praised for his magnificent skills once he scored his first goal of the game.
The player's current form keeps surprising fans and experts, as the following comments demonstrate.
This Suárez guy may work out for Barcelona. 6 goals in his last 6 league games, after "only" 4 in his 1st 15.

Suarez has been directly involved in 27 goals this season for Barcelona, scoring 16 goals and dishing out 11 assists for Los Blaugranas. During 2015 matches, Suarez has scored 10 goals and handed 4 assists, revealing his importance for Luis Enrique's side after being heavily questioned during his first games following his "biting" ban.
The striker was clearly happy with his good performance, and he shared his thoughts via his Twitter feed.
"Very important three points. Great effort by all the team. Let's rest and think about the next game!"
