Stunning Suarez streak comes to an end for Barcelona

Barcelona have lost for the first time in a match that Luis Suarez has scored in.

Sunday's 2-1 LaLiga loss against Deportivo La Coruna at the Riazor was the 73rd Barca match in all competitions that had seen Suarez find the net.

Suarez, who scored four when Barca won 8-0 at the Riazor last season, appeared to have got the visitors back on track after the break within a minute of the restart.

But Depor captain Alex Bergantinos' header with 16 minutes remaining proved decisive.
