Messi managed to trifle in a free kick to make the score 4-3 in the 90th minute whereas Suarez shot a goal through the goalkeepers’ legs in what was the last kick of the match.
With this draw, the lead of Barcelona in Spanish league has been somewhat narrowed by 8 points.

Ernesto Valverde, Barcelona coach said, “Luis is player that will be found in the right place at the very right time. He managed to pull out a game that was not going in our favor at the very last moment. As for Messi, he is a specialist of free kicks.”
