Luis Suarez's 2015-16 adventure ended in worrisome fashion Sunday.

After losing Javier Mascherano to a red card in the first half of the Copa del Rey final, things went from bad to worse for Barcelona in the second half, as Luis Suarez went down while clutching his leg and subsequently hobbled off the pitch with an apparent hamstring injury.

Rafinha replaced Suarez, who is ending 2015-16 with numbers that are, simply put, phenomenal.

Away from the Vicente Calderon, a collective gasp was likely also heard across the Atlantic Ocean, as Uruguay's national team kicks off its Copa America Centenario escapade in exactly two weeks. Placed in Group C, Los Charruas will play Mexico, Jamaica, and Venezuela in the competition's group stage.
