(Video) Watch Luis Suarez Score Wonder Goal For Nacional In Uruguayan Clasico

Luis Suarez reminded fans why he is known as the Clasico king with a stunning strike for Nacional at the weekend.

Suarez had scored 11 times for Barcelona against Real Madrid in Spain's Clasico before starring in the Uruguayan version on Sunday.

The 35-year-old scored a long-range wonder goal to help Nacional beat rivals Penarol 3-1 in Montevideo.

Suarez's moment of magic came on 52 minutes after a throw-in was aimed in his direction.

He let the ball bounce twice before nailing a left-footed volley into the top corner of the net from 25 yards.
