Just minutes after hitting the post, the Uruguayan went one better, slotting home to put Barca ahead against their stubborn opponents.
Suarez exchanged passes with substitute Paco Alcacer on the edge of the box and after being sent clear, kept his cool to round Sergio Asenjo and roll the ball into an unguarded net.
It was a high-quality strike and just what Barca needed in a tight game.
