Signed from Ajax in January 2011, Luis Suarez was one of Liverpool's best players during his partial campaign at Anfield... and by the time he returned to Anfield to begin his first full season, the striker had won the 2011 Copa America with Uruguay and been named Player of the Tournament.

The LFC No.7 made an immediate impact at the tournament in Argentina, scoring in Uruguay's opening game to secure a 1-1 draw with Peru.

He scored the winning penalty in a quarter-final shootout with hosts Argentina and then netted both goals in a Man-of-the-Match performance as La Celeste beat Peru 2-0 in the semi-final at the Estadio Ciudad de La Plata.

The final would be played in Buenos Aires against a Paraguay side that had not won a game in the tournament - drawing all three group games and going through the knockout stages via penalty shootout victories.

But the stubborn Paraguay side proved to be no obstacle for Suarez, who fired low into the far corner to opening the scoring and then providing a brilliant headed assist for Diego Forlan to score his second goal in the 3-0 win.

Uruguay had won their first Copa America for 16 years and Suarez was the star of the show.
