Suarez breaks jinx against Milan

Suarez scored the winner for Atletico Madrid during their 2-1 win over AC Milan in the Champions League at the San Siro.

He also became the third player in history after Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Cristiano Ronaldo to score in every minute of the game when he netted against Getafe in La Liga.

The Uruguayan international also scored his first Champions League goal away from home in six years

On the other hand, Haaland was rested for Dortmund's clash with Sporting Lisbon where they record a 1-0 win at the Signa Iguna Park.

The Norwegian picked up a slight injury over the weekend and was not risked by his coach for the Champions League encounter with the Portuguese side.
