Suarez and Messi earn comeback win for Barca in Coutinho’s LaLiga debut

Philippe Coutinho made his first LaLiga start for Barcelona but it was Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi who stole the headlines once again in a 2-1 win against Alaves.

Ernesto Valverde’s side were forced to come from a goal down after John Guidetti’s fortunate opener, but Suarez scored for the eighth game in a row to haul them level and a trademark Messi free-kick snatched the points late on.
