Overall, 2014 has been a tough year for Luis Suarez. After finishing as the top goal scorer in the 2013 2014 English Premier League-and nearly leading his Liverpool squad to a championship title-the Uruguayan striker looked poised to have a remarkable World Cup. But then the infamous biting scandal occurred and he was suspended from all competitive football events for four months. To add to all the tumult, Luis traded the Liverpool home shirt for the Barcelona home kit this fall.

All told, arguably no professional footballer's situation has changed more in the past year than that of Suarez. So when the star striker's four-month suspension finally came to an end late in October, many wondered how he would do at Camp Nou. Would he don the Barcelona home shirt 2014 2015 (available for purchase at Soccer Box!) and join fellow team members Lionel Messi and Neymar in pushing up Barca's goal count? Or would he struggle to find the same offensive rhythm that he had at Liverpool last year.

As it turns out, it was more of the latter. While Suarez has provided a few strong assists since his competitive debut at Camp Nou-and even a few goals in Champions League play-he hadn't scored a single point in La Liga competition until this past weekend.

Breaking the Ice

Luis finally broke the ice on La Liga goals in a December 20th home match against Cordoba. The football game was destined from the beginning to be an easy win for the wearers of the Barcelona home kit. Cordoba, after all, is currently ranked second to last on the standings table for the Spanish Primera Division, and has only won a single game this season. Meanwhile, Barcelona has 12 wins, two draws, and two losses.

And an easy win it was. Barca ran riot over Cordoba from the moment the game began. The first point was put on the board just two minutes in-by Pedro, with an assist from Ivan Rakitic-and fans in the Barcelona home shirt 2014 2015 continued to get their money's worth throughout.

The score ultimately ended up being 5-0 in favor of Barcelona. But the most exciting facet of the match wasn't the three goals in the last 10 minutes of play (two of them from Lionel Messi), or Pedro's opening strike. Rather, the defining moment of the fixture was the moment when Suarez finally put himself on the board in the 2014 2015 La Liga.

The Uruguayan striker's goal came at the 53-minute mark, thanks to an assist from Pedro. His celebration at ending his eight-game scoreless streak in the Spanish Primera Division was shared not just by his teammates, but also by every soccer supporter in attendance wearing the Barcelona home kit. Both Pedro and Messi might have done more to secure a big Barca victory, but Luis was the big story of the match.

A Short Break 

It was a good time for Luis to finally land his first 2014 2015 La Liga goal. The division is currently taking a break for Christmas, so this was Barca's last soccer game of 2014. Play will resume for the club on January 4th, 2015, with an away game against Real Sociedad.

The break will be good for the footballers in the Barcelona home shirt 2014 2015, who played three other matches in the 10 days preceding the Cordoba fixture. These football games included fixtures in the Spanish Primera Division, the Copa Del Rey, and the Champions League.
