Luis Suarez scores ridiculous backheel goal against Mallorca

Normally it’s Lionel Messi turning heads with insane goals in FC Barcelona games. Not today.

Luis Suarez kicked the most stunning goal you’ll see today against RCA Mallorca. With Barcelona already up 3-1 in the 42nd minute, Suarez got the ball running through the box.

With keeper Manolo Reina completely playing the left side of the net, Suarez flicked the ball off of his back heel without even looking to see where he shot it and scored a goal.

It doesn’t get much prettier than this. It’s hard to figure out how Suarez got this one off, but it’s an incredibly ridiculous play.

Reina didn’t stand a chance on this shot, but he also didn’t really see it coming. No one did.

Suarez is sometimes known better for the antics that come with the way he plays, but you’ve got to give him this one — this is a brilliant goal.
