    11:00 – Suarez in focus

    All the talk in the build-up to Sunday’s El Clasico was about the absences of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Yet there was still a pedigreed goalscorer with a history of good performances in this fixture, and Luis Suarez reminded everyone what he’s capable of, scoring a superb hat-trick in Barcelona‘s dominant 5-1 win.

    The Uruguayan tormented Real Madrid throughout, and quite possibly ended manager Julen Lopetegui’s tenure in charge of the club.

    Here’s a closer look at the striker’s performance.
