Barcelona put one foot in the final of the Champions League (3-0), thanks to a double by Messi and another goal by Luis Suarez, who hid a discreet match of the Catalans against Liverpool, who deserved to take the tie more open to Anfield Road.

Valverde sacrificed the positional game seated Arthur and equalized the physical deployment of the opponent putting Arturo Vidal. And Barca proposed to the 'reds' a round trip that was about to cost him expensive at the start. But in the end, he achieved pure gold from a duel that was complicated at times.

Liverpool, much more accustomed to the exchange of punches, went to look for the Barca very high, unable to pause the shock, accumulating loss after loss and beginning to feel the burden of the Klopp team.

But as Rakitic said on the eve: in this Barça, Messi stands in front and the others follow him. The Argentine star ended the disconcerting start of his teammates going down to receive the center of the field to prevent the team split in two.

Two flashes of the '10' past the quarter of an hour ended with two separate shots of Coutinho, the first at the hands of Allison and the second too crossed. Barcelona, which was being dominated, hit first.

Liverpool, who had lost Keïta through injury, midway through the first half, continued to press but, despite the mobility of Salah and Mané, did not reach clearly the goal defended by Ter Stegen.

And then, Jordi Alba appeared, in one of his internships on the left, to put a center in the small area. Luis Suárez threw himself with everything and hunted the auction to send it to the back of the net. It was his first goal in the 'Champions' since April 4, 2018. And what a goal.
