Luis Suarez hails the best goal of his career

FC Barcelona striker Luis Suarez claims his impressive back-heel strike against Real Mallorca is the best goal he has ever scored.

While Lionel Messi grabbed the headlines for bagging a hat-trick on Saturday night, Suarez also got on the score-sheet with an impressive finish in the first half.

There were initial thoughts that Suarez was attempting a pass, but he insists he was going for goal.

"It is the best goal of my career," Suarez said in an interview with Marca.

"I knew there was an angle to score, and that I would have to go with the back heel."

"But I was alive for the rebound, as I gave the goal keeper a chance to save."

"We are playing with more confidence at the moment, and that showed today."

"We linked up really well in attack, and that is good."
