With Barca’s nearest challengers Atletico Madrid falling to a 2-0 defeat at Athletic FC Barcelona the previous day, Messi got Barca off to an ideal start by drilling a free kick into the top corner of the net in the 18th minute.

There were worries for Barca at the end of the game, however. Suarez, clearly in pain, had to receive treatment on the sidelines and Barca later confirmed he had sprained his ankle and would undergo tests on Monday to determine how long he would be out.
