“It’s incredible, it’s something unique. To win these trophies you have to suffer,” he said.
“I think after the equaliser they pushed on a little more, but we have players who made the difference. We have gone from game-to-game and achieved all our objectives.
“The best thing about this side is the spirit and the fact we’ve been united since the start of the season.”
Suarez scored the second of Barcelona’s goals after Ivan Rakitic had given his side the lead in the fourth minute of the final.
Alvaro Morata equalised for Juventus before Suarez restored the Spanish side’s lead and Neymar struck late on to make it 3-1.

Fellow Barcelona rookie Rakitic insisted his side will not lose their hunger for more trophies after landing the treble.
“It’s a final, it’s normal that we had to suffer. They got into the game as it went on,” said Rakitic.
“We deserved the win. I hope we don’t stop here, and next year there’s more to win and we want more,” he added.
Man, was that easy or what? http://t.co/rOLJ3dYwki https://t.co/KxDRRK4mkz
