Barcelona clinches 28th LaLiga title all time, third trophy this season
Barcelona clinched its 28th LaLiga title, capping off a season in which the Catalan club won three domestic trophies under first-year manager Hansi Flick. Thursday's 2-0 win over local rivals Espanyol ensured Barcelona would finish ahead of Real Madrid in the standings with just over two weeks left in the season. It's also the third time this season that Barcelona clinched silverware at Madrid's expense. The Blaugrana had already won the Copa del Rey on April 26 — a 3-2 win over Los Blancos in Seville — as well as a 5-2 win in the Supercopa de España final on Jan. 12 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Along with two wins in league play, Barcelona won all four clashes against its Clásico rivals this season. Flick now adds a Spanish title to his managerial résumé in his first season at Barcelona. The German had previously led Bayern Munich to two Bundesliga crowns and the 2020 Champions League trophy. Barcelona were led by playmakers Robert Lewandowski (25 goals) and Raphinha (18 goals), but the team's revelation this season was arguably Lamine Yamal, the 17-year-old sensation who was also part of Spain's Euro 2024 championship team. In 52 games across all competitions this season, Yamal scored 24 goals for the Catalans. The only blemish to Barcelona's season was falling short in the Champions League, bowing out to Inter Milan in the knockout rounds. Despite a return to the competition's semifinals for the first time since 2019, Barça has not lifted Europe's preeminent club trophy since 2015. Madrid entered this season with lofty expectations after winning a 36th LaLiga title and 15th Champions League crown (both records) last May. The club followed that up by signing Kylian Mbappé but will finish the campaign without a major trophy. The club will also see the departure of Carlo Ancelotti, who'll take over as the Brazil men's national team manager ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Want great stories delivered right to your inbox?

Barcelona defeats Real Madrid in high-scoring El Clasíco, overcomes Kylian Mbappé's hat trick
In a high-scoring edition of the iconic El Clasíco matchup, Barcelona took a 4-3 win over Real Madrid despite a hat trick from Madrid forward Kylian Mbappé. Barcelona has ruled the rivalry lately, defeating Real Madrid four times this season starting with a 4-0 La Liga victory in October. Subsequent victories in the Supercopa de España and Copa del Rey further proved Barcelona's dominance this year. Mbappé struck first with an early penalty kick in the fifth minute after an ill-timed tackle gave him a chance from the spot. He struck again in the 14th minute off an excellent assist from Vinícius Júnior. Barcelona answered when defender Eric Garcia struck first in the 19th minute, followed by three Barça goals in less than 15 minutes: one from 17-year-old phenom Lamine Yamal in the 32nd minute, and then two from Raphinha after 34 and 45 minutes. LAMINE YAMAL AND RAPHINHA BOTH SCORE WITHIN TWO MINUTES OF EACH OTHER TO COMPLETELY TURN ELCLÁSICO AROUND FOR BARCA! 3-2! 😱 — ESPN FC (@ESPNFC) May 11, 2025 Mbappé came back with another in the 70th minute to bring the score to 4-3, completing his hat trick. But Real Madrid couldn't break through Barcelona's defense, as goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny made multiple key saves to hold the lead. Barcelona midfielder Fermín Lopez nearly made it 5-3 in stoppage time, but his goal was called back due to a handball in the run-up. Barcelona instead settled for a one-goal victory, and El Clasíco bragging rights for another year. Barcelona is currently at the top of the La Liga standings with 82 points, while Real Madrid sits in second with 75. With three matches remaining in the regular season, Barcelona needs only one win to secure the La Liga title.
