More controversy surrounding a Barcelona goal which was not awarded. Luis Suarez tried his luck from an angle with a rabona finish and the official believed Ruben kept it out.

Even with the replay, it was not easy to tell if the ball had crossed the line. Ruben stretched to keep out Luis Suarez's rabona strike and the referee waved away claims that it had crossed the line.

With no goal line technology in La Liga, we will never know the true answer, but Luis Suarez certainly thought it was over as he protested at the break.
