Moments after Juventus' Alvaro Morata leveled the Champions League final at one goal apiece, Barcelona's Luis Suarez reclaimed the lead for his team. 

Suarez's goal came off a deflection. Lionel Messi, running at Juventus' defense, blasted a low shot from the top of the box, but Juve goalkeeper Gigi Buffon turned aside Messi's attempt. But Buffon's failed to control the ball, and Suarez scampered past Patrice Evra to boot the ball past Buffon into the back of the net. 

The goal, which came in the 68th minute, gave Barcelona a 2-1 lead just 13 minutes after Morata had equalized for Juventus. 

​Just a few minutes after Suarez scored, officials disallowed a Neymar goal, ruling it a hand ball.
