SPORTS: UCL:ARSENAL vs BARCELONA

Suarez: I don’t know how I scored that goal!

The Barcelona forward shocked himself with his 43rd goal of the season, a remarkable volley to down Arsenal in the Champions League. Heading into the last-16 match with a 2-0 aggregate lead, Neymar extended the advantage for Luis Enrique’s men but Arsenal were not discouraged.

Mohamed Elneny hit his first goal for the club as Arsene Wenger’s team created the bulk of the chances immediately before and after half-time. But the hosts’ nerves were extinguished in the truly spectacular style and Suarez leapt and contorted himself to spear Dani Alves’ cross into the top corner. Luis Suarez was as stunned as many inside Camp Nou when reflecting on his acrobatic volley in Barcelona’s Champion League triumph over Arsenal.

Lionel Messi added a typically stylish third with an 88th-minute chip and Suarez was keen to credit the collective as attention focused on his individual brilliance. On the prospect of repeating last season’s phenomenal treble, with Barca clear at the top of La Liga and into the final of the Copa del Rey, Suarez sounded a note of caution.
