BARCELONA (Reuters) - Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar were all on target as holders Barcelona beat Athletic Bilbao 3-1 on Wednesday to overturn a deficit from the first leg and advance to the quarter-finals of the King's Cup. Athletic responded immediately though, substitute defender Gorka Elustondo crossing for Barcelona-born Enric Saborit to head home in the 51st minute. The goal emboldened the visitors for a 10-minute spell but Barca withstood the pressure. The Nou Camp exploded with rage on Wednesday when Neymar was harshly ruled offside as he squared for Suarez to find the net. The Brazilian coolly converted to score for the first time since the 4-0 win over Manchester City on Oct. 19.
