VIDEO: Suarez scores stunner as Barcelona overturns deficit with 2 goals in 2 minutes

Football is a cruel game.

Bayer Leverkusen went into arguably the most daunting venue in all of world football and put on a stunning display against reigning Champions League king Barcelona for 80 minutes.

It still wasn't enough.

Even without Lionel Messi, the Blaugrana, who conceded the opening goal in the 22nd minute, got two goals in the space of 120 seconds to turn the match on its head - and stun the German side.

Sergi Roberto equalised in the 80th minute by tapping a rebound into an open net, and Luis Suarez gave the Spanish side the lead with a stunning right-footed strike that flew into the roof of Bernd Leno's goal.

Poor, poor Leverkusen.
