Barcelona striker Luis Suarez, has admitted that he had no choice but to nutmeg David Luiz in Wednesday’s 3-1 win at the Parc des Princes.
The Uruguayan scored twice, each time ghosting past the Paris Saint-Germain defender, to give the Catalans a commanding lead going into next week’s second leg.
“A striker is always looking for goals and the two moves came off for me,” Suarez is quoted as saying by Spanish newspaper, AS.
“I had to nutmeg Luiz twice because there was nothing else I could do.
“We were focused from the first minute. We knew we had to come out with a lot of intensity.
“In football you never know what’s going to happen. They have so much quality and we need to be aware that this isn’t over. It’ll be a good game.”
Neymar had opened scoring for the La Liga side, while Jeremy Mathieu’s own goal gives PSG the slimmest chance to qualify.
