Barcelona suffered their first home La Liga defeat of the season
Barcelona suffered their first home La Liga defeat of the season as they were beaten by Celta Vigo at the Nou Camp.
The visitors took a surprise lead in the second half when Joaquin Larrivey finished after Nolito's backheel.
Luis Enrique's Barcelona side hit the woodwork four times, with Lionel Messi and Neymar both being frustrated twice.
Luis Suarez, making his home debut, had two chances to score an equaliser but missed with a header and had an effort saved by goalkeeper Sergio Alvarez.
It means Suarez has lost in both of the competitive matches he has played for Barcelona since joining from Liverpool for £75m.
After serving a four-month suspension for biting Italy's Giorgio Chiellini during the World Cup, the Uruguayan striker made his first appearance for Barcelona in their 3-1 El Clasico defeat away at Real Madrid last Saturday.
Barcelona missed out on winning La Liga by three points last season and will hope this result does not prove crucial at the end of the campaign.
