Barcelona news

First his father's death, then the title with Barça: Hansi Flick won hearts on an emotional day.

Real Madrid head coach Alvaro Arbeloa provided a blunt assessment of Kylian Mbappe's fitness situation following a devastating Clasico defeat that saw Barcelona crowned La Liga champions. The Frenchman was a high-profile absentee as the Blaugrana celebrated domestic glory on their home turf, leaving Los Blancos to pick up the pieces of a fractured season.

Barcelona star Gavi has opened up on his fiery confrontation with Vinicius Junior during Sunday's decisive Clasico at Camp Nou. The midfielder played a key role as the Blaugrana secured a 2-0 victory to clinch the La Liga title, but the match included several high-tension flashpoints between the two rivals.

Joao Cancelo has written his name into the history books following Barcelona’s clinical 2-0 victory over Real Madrid to secure the La Liga title. While the Blaugrana celebrated domestic dominance at the Camp Nou, the Portuguese defender reached a milestone that has eluded the greatest icons of the game.

Marcus Rashford has admitted he is unsure on his Barcelona future despite helping the Catalan giants secure the La Liga title with a sensational goal in their Clasico victory over Real Madrid. The Manchester United loanee, who has enjoyed a career resurgence in Spain, admitted his long-term fate remains out of his hands as his temporary spell at Camp Nou nears its conclusion.

Vinicius Junior ensured the Barcelona faithful knew exactly who remain the kings of the Champions League despite Real Madrid suffering a painful Clasico defeat on Sunday. As Los Blancos struggled to a 2-0 away defeat to their arch-rivals, the Brazilian winger took it upon himself to silence the jeering home crowd with a pointed reminder of the trophy cabinet in the capital.

It's official: Barcelona are La Liga champions once again - and in the end it was all very predictable. The runaway leaders only needed a point as the fixture schedule gave them the unique opportunity to retain their crown against Real Madrid in El Clasico, but they never looked like settling for a draw against their rudderless rivals, who are in the midsts of a dressing room crisis. The victory was swift and brutal, as Hansi Flick's side required just 20 minutes to put the game and the title beyond their old foes at Spotify Camp Nou.

Lionel Messi has shared an emotional message of congratulations after watching his former club Barcelona secure back-to-back La Liga titles in historic fashion. The Argentine legend was among the first to react as the Blaugrana dismantled Real Madrid at the Spotify Camp Nou to move into an unassailable lead at the top of the table.

During the Clásico, which ended in a 2-0 defeat to the newly crowned champions FC Barcelona, Vinicius Junior was provoked into making a provocative gesture.

Vinicius Jr went missing and Real Madrid turned in a spirited yet ineffective performance against Barcelona, losing 2-0 and watching their rivals lift the league trophy in the process. Los Blancos were outplayed throughout, and could never recover from an early deficit in a game that more or less summed up the massive gulf in quality between the two teams.

Barcelona retained their league title in dream circumstances on Sunday night, comprehensively defeating fierce rivals Real Madrid in El Clasico on home soil. La Liga's runaway leaders only needed a point from the showdown at Spotify Camp Nou and would have expected a stern contest against their old foes, but in truth this was a routine victory over a Madrid side in disarray after a week of chaos behind the scenes.

Marcus Rashford emulated Lionel Messi during Sunday's Clasico, scoring a magnificent direct free-kick to help Barcelona establish a 2-0 half-time lead against Real Madrid. The Manchester United loanee found the top corner from range in the ninth minute, becoming the first Blaugrana player to score a free-kick in the fixture since Messi in 2012.

Although Lamine Yamal did not play in El Clásico between his club, FC Barcelona, and Real Madrid, the young star was still the talk of the town.
