Luis Suarez finished off a pass from Philippe Coutinho to give Barcelona the opening goal in their Copa del Rey final against Sevilla.

Ernesto Valverde's side are chasing their first trophy of the season as they take on La Liga rivals Sevilla at the Wanda Metropolitano on Saturday night.

However, 'Los Cules' needed just 14 minutes to break the deadlock and it was in an unusual style for the possession-based team.

From a route-one approach, Jasper Cillessens kick broke Sevilla's defence, sending Coutinho through on goal.

The Brazilian then pulled opposing goalkeeper David Soria off his line, allowing team-mate Suarez an open net to aim at after he was found with chipped pass which the Uruguayan had no trouble finishing off.
