Luis Suarez hailed his second-half winner against Real Madrid as 'the most important goal ' of his Barcelona career . With 55 minutes on the clock and the scoreline locked at 1-1 after Cristiano Ronaldo had cancelled out Jeremy Mathieu 's opener , the Uruguayan trapped a long punt forward by Dani Alves and then arrowed the ball past Iker Casillas to restore Barca 's lead at the Nou Camp . Luis Enrique 's side went on to dominate the remainder of the game and won 2-1 , thus building a four-point advantage at the top of the Primera Division table . Lionel Messi , Adriano , Bartra , Dani Alves , Neymar and Rafinha get suited and booted after the triumph . Goalscoring hero Luis Suarez poses for a pic with fellow frontmen Messi and Neymar after the victory . Luis Suarez fires home the winner past Iker Casillas to send Barcelona on their way to victory . Suarez celebrates scoring the goal that sent Barcelona four points clear at the top of La Liga . The strike was Suarez 's 14th in all competitions for Barcelona since he made his £75million move from Liverpool last summer . And the 28-year-old had no doubt this was his most crucial goal for his new club , ranking it above the two he netted against Manchester City in the Champions League last month . 'This is the most important goal I 've scored for Barca and it has an extra significance because of the rival we were playing against , ' Suarez told Barcelona 's official television Channel . ' I just tried to take advantage of the space between defenders and be as fast as I could so I did n't give the centre-backs any time to recover . Luckily it went in . 'The dressing room is very happy , we knew this was a really important game if we wanted to stay top of the league and increase our advantage . ' Barca coach Luis Enrique sang the striker 's praises after the game , calling the goal 'an action that only few players are capable of ' . 'We are very happy that he is a being decisive player for us and we are very happy with his attitude and what he brings to this team , ' he said . 'He brings a lot to the team he is not just a classic centre forward , he also links up with his team-mates . He 's a player that marvellously compliments the squad we have , and that 's why we signed him . ' Jeremy Mathieu headed home the opening goal for Barcelona in the first half . Cristiano Ronaldo equalised for Real Madrid but was unable to stamp his authority on the game . Madrid now have 10 weeks to catch up with Barcelona , who have won 19 of their 21 matches in 2015 . Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti lamented the fact his side failed to keep a 'cool head ' after the break , following their strong performance in the opening 45 minutes . 'We were playing very well until their second goal and from then on the game was very difficult for us , ' said the Italian in his post-match press conference . 'Before that we were doing well , we pressed well and were solid at the back . We lacked a cool head to turn the game around , we kept playing long balls and trying to execute difficult passages of play . ' This is Ancelotti 's third defeat in four league games against Barcelona and , if his side can not bridge the four-point gap with the Catalans , he will have failed to win the Spanish league title in his first two seasons with Madrid . However , the man who delivered Los Blancos their long awaited 10th European Cup last season dismissed the suggestion his side would now focus their attention on the Champions League , with a quarter-final tie against neighbours Atletico Madrid coming up next month . He said : 'The league is not over , they have the same points advantage that we had before but anything could happen . 'We 're not going to give a priority to either competition , the priority for us is the league and the Champions League . '
