Luis Suárez scored his 100th Barcelona goal in some style

Vintage Suárez.

Wherever he has played, Luis Suárez has scored goals.

The Uruguayan has reached double figures for league goals in every single season of his professional career, often doing a whole lot better than that.

And now, after hitting a century for Ajax in his first 134 games and ending with 82 in three-and-a-half seasons as a Liverpool player, Suárez has brought up his ton for Barcelona in double-quick time.

It has taken him just 120 games in all competitions to score a century of goals, including 59 in just 53 games last season, but goal number 100 – in the Copa Del Rey meeting with Athletic Club – was one of the best.

Suárez scored some stunners during his time in England, but few which demonstrated his precision and athleticism quite like this one.

It marked the 16th time the 29-year-old has found the net this season, in his 24th appearance, and we wouldn’t be surprised if he ends the campaign with at least double that total.

Oh, and if you were wondering about his final goal tallies elsewhere, here you go:

Nacional – 34 games, 12 goals

Groningen – 37 games, 15 goals

Ajax – 159 games, 111 goals

Liverpool – 133 games, 82 goals

Barcelona – 120 games, 100 goals (and counting)

Uruguay – 90 games, 47 goals (and counting)

Not bad. Not bad at all.
