Barcelona defender Jordi Alba hailed teammate Luis Suarez as "the most complete No. 9 in the world" after the Uruguayan's three-goal demolition of Guangzhou Evergrande on Thursday night put the Spanish giants into the Club World Cup final.
Suarez brushed off the absence of star teammates Lionel Messi and Neymar to score all three goals in Barcelona's 3-0 win over Asian champions Guangzhou, earning his side a showdown with Argentine side River Plate in Sunday's final.
Barcelona left-back Alba was not surprised at his teammate's virtuoso performance in front of 63,820 at Yokohama's Nissan Stadium, however, and believes no other striker in the world can match the mercurial Uruguayan's predatory instincts.
