WATCH: Luis Suarez makes Atletico Madrid look like amateurs with absolutely stunning solo goal

Breakneck speed

Ben Kiely

Remember how good Luis Suarez is at playing football?

How could you possibly forget?

Suarez produced an early contender for goal of the season during Barcelona’s Copa del Rey semi final against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night. It was a quick goal in every sense of the word, with Suarez turning on the afterburners to find the net just seven minutes into the match.

The move started with Javier Mascherano dispossessing an Atletico attacker in his own half, with Suarez taking hold of possession just on the half-way line.

Although he still had everything left to do, the Uruguayan made everything from there on out look easy. With two defenders between him and the goal, the left back towards him before dinking the ball between the two into space.

He then went into Usain Bolt mode, outpacing everyone to regain possession just outside the box. With a defender hot on his heels, he took the most delicate of touches before firing the ball into the far corner of the net with the outside of the net.

PICK. THAT. OUT.
