Barcelona sealed the 2025-26 La Liga title in their favour in emphatic fashion on Sunday, defeating arch-rivals Real Madrid 2-0 at a packed Camp Nou to cap off a dominant league campaign under head coach Hansi Flick.
The victory moved Barcelona to 91 points, putting them 14 clear of second-placed Real Madrid with only three matches remaining in the season. Villarreal sit third on 69 points.
Real Madrid entered the Clasico knowing that only a win could keep their slim title hopes alive, but Barcelona took control early. Marcus Rashford opened the scoring in the ninth minute with a stunning free kick after Antonio Rudiger fouled Ferran Torres just outside the penalty area. The England forward curled his effort into the top-left corner beyond Thibaut Courtois, sparking wild celebrations among the home supporters.
Barcelona doubled their lead just nine minutes later through Torres. Fermin Lopez delivered a cross into the box, and Dani Olmo cleverly backheeled the ball into Torres' path before the Spanish forward smashed his shot into the top corner.
