Suarez celebrates century game in style

The Uruguayan sealed a comfortable 3-0 victory over Catalan rival Girona with a clinical finish late on to reach a remarkable tally of 87 goals in his century of league games.
The figures are all the more impressive given that it took Suarez almost two months to break his duck in Catalonia and that his form has been erratic this season. Before Saturday, he had just one league goal to his name and he sat out Tuesday’s 6-1 thrashing of Eibar.
