Luis Suarez breaks Liverpool hearts as two goals win title for boyhood club

Luis Suarez put in a man-of-the-match performance and scored a brace against a very familiar name as he helped boyhood team Club Nacional lift their 49th Uruguayan championship on Sunday.

The Uruguayan, who was once idolised at Anfield, found the net twice in the championship final, helping to secure a 4-1 win against South American side Liverpool, after extra time.
