A Barcelona side without talisman, Lionel Messi, fell to a 1-0 defeat on the opening fixture of La Liga on Friday night.
After long periods of unproductive pressure, an ageless Aduriz turned back the hands of the clock when he came off the bench to steal the show with a wonderful acrobatic effort from inside the penalty area which left Ter Stegen hapless. In the 89th minute, a ball from the right picked out Aduriz who was unmarked in the penalty area. He kept his eyes firmly on the ball, judged the flight to perfection and went for the bicycle kick.
Barcelona were without their talisman Lionel Messi due to injury and their problems went from bad to worse when Luis Suarez hobbled off midway through the first half.


Suarez and Rafinha were denied by the woodwork in the first half, but there was no stopping Aduriz whose winner will put increasing pressure on Barca boss Ernesto Valverde.
This defeat means Barcelona have failed to claim their 11th consecutive opening day victory in the La Liga.
