Barcelona beat Manchester City 2-1 in Champions League

Luis Suarez scored twice but Sergio Aguero and Joe Hart kept Manchester City's Champions League hopes alive as Barcelona won 2-1 at the Etihad Stadium.

The former Liverpool striker fired in two first-half goals as the visitors completely dominated proceedings in the opening 45 minutes, before Aguero pulled one back in a much-improved display from City after the break, while Lionel Messi had a penalty saved in the dying moments.

The hosts’ comeback was halted when Gael Clichy was sent off for a second yellow card, and Barcelona saw out the victory to take a lead back to Camp Nou.

Pellegrini’s men now know they face an uphill struggle in the second leg of this last-16 tie on March 18.
