Luis Suarez”s brace help Barcelona edge past Inter Milan

TIL Desk Sports/ FC Barcelona edged Inter Milan 2-1 on two second-half goals by Luis Suarez to move into a tie on points for the lead in Group F of the ongoing Champions League. Both Borussia Dortmund, who beat Slavia Prague 2-0 on Wednesday, and Barca are on four points after two matches, while Inter and the Czech club have a point each.

With the brace against Inter, Suarez has already doubled his goal total in the 2018-2019 Champions League, and the Uruguayan”s return to form in European play couldn”t have come at a better time for Barcelona, currently fourth in La Liga after seven matches.

The visitors, superior in all aspects of the game for the lion”s share of the first half, took the lead in the 2nd minute with a goal by Lautaro Martinez, who took a deep pass and got past defender Clement Lenglet before beating keeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen with a low drive.
