Coutinho stunner moved Barca within inches of the title

The Brazilian midfielder, regarded as Andres Iniesta's successor, is often hailed for his shooting ability, and his goal against Deportivo on Sunday was certainly testament to his world class finishing. 

With seven minutes on the clock, Barca launched an early attack. Ousmane Dembele, noticing that he had no gap to go alone, opted to roll the ball back to Coutinho on the edge of the box. And he did the rest...

With mesmerising technique, Coutinho swept the ball up into the top left corner to give his side the lead and kickstart Barcelona's title celebrations.
