Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi played a key role as Barcelona ran out comfortable 2-0 winners against Sevilla in the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup.

 

Barcelona got their season off to a positive start with a victory over Sevilla in the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup. Goals from Luis Suarez and Munir El Haddadi saw the Catalans cruise to a 2-0 win over the Europa League champions.

The Andalusians, led by new boss Jorge Sampaoli, had already endured a UEFA Super Cup set-back at the hands of Real Madrid. With a loss to the Catalans at the Sanchez Pizjuan, Sevilla are faced with the imposing task of turning their 2-0 deficit around at the Camp Nou three days from now.
