FC Barcelona are Spanish champions ahead of schedule and for the 29th time. The Catalans clinched the title with a 2-0 win in the Clasico against arch-rivals Real Madrid.
Marcus Rashford with a direct free kick (9') and Ferran Torres (18') made the difference in the first 20 minutes. Real, who were without injured superstar Kylian Mbappé and made headlines during the week with a dressing room brawl between Federico Valverde and Aurélien Tchouaméni, should have won the game to keep the championship race open. Barça's lead over their closest rivals is 14 points with three rounds to go.
Never before has Barcelona decided the championship with a Clasico victory. The reverse is also an absolute rarity. Real achieved the feat in 1932.
Despite the victory over their arch-rivals and the successful defense of the title, the mood at the Camp Nou was not exuberant. The reason for this was the death of Hansi Flick's father, which FC Barcelona announced a few hours before the game. Nevertheless, the 61-year-old German, who celebrated his second championship in his second year at Barcelona, was on the touchline.
