Lamine Yamal scores stunning goal at Espanyol and sets up Fermin Lopez's late second in a 2-0 win that secures a league and cup double for head coach Hansi Flick in his first season in charge, with Barcelona dethroning rivals Real Madrid after beating them in the Copa del Rey final

Second-half goals from Yamal and Fermin Lopez either side of Leandro Cabrera's sending off for Espanyol secure a league and cup double for head coach Hansi Flick in his first season in charge.

Seventeen-year-old Yamal, a league winner for the second time, found the top corner with a pinpoint, curling strike from the edge of the box to open the scoring after 53 minutes.

Yamal, who Cabrera struck to earn a red card with 10 minutes left, then set up fellow La Masia graduate Lopez in stoppage time to extend their lead against their rivals Espanyol.

Barcelona have dethroned rivals Real Madrid, who they beat in the Copa del Rey final last month.
The treble was still a possibility until earlier this month, when Barcelona were knocked out of the Champions League by Inter Milan in one of the great semi-final ties, losing 7-6 on aggregate.

Barcelona won their 28th Spanish title with two games to spare, but are still some way off matching Real Madrid's tally of 36.
They host Villarreal this Sunday before travelling to Athletic Club a week later in their final game of the campaign.

Congrats to Barcelona anyways. They deserve... kudos to the young kid aswell, lamine. He's doing wonders... but never compare him to Messi, Messi was in a league of his own then

The pastor that saw PSG was seeing in reverse.
Football prophet, and people will still be following such a charlatan. The same way some people still believe Tinubu has anything to offer.

Na coach and coaching crew in sync be that! Small boys big brain! No be like those madrid bragalicios!

Come see Chelsea wey dey fight Villa and Forest for Gift UCL spot number 5! Back up na to enter Europa by beating Real Betis in Conference League Final. Na so so buy buy buy buy buy shit! Chelsea don become a club for every Tomiwa, Dike and Haruna!

Come see Man U and Spurs dey fight for UCL spot through Europa final while languishing in 16 and 17 respectively in the Premier League!

Mancity though they are a little below par yet they still tried their best! Their best not okay though as they are also fighting with Newcastle for 3rd place!

Arsenal's problem na every season be their season! Person wey flog Real Madrid home and away chop Partey Rice from Mbape-less PSG.

Ticki Tacka na your mate!

Barcalona ard by far the better team this season beating Real Madrid 4 Different Encounters.

Precise and Deadly In Attack.
Consistent in Rythem and flow of Play.
Plays Together as a Unit.
Confident and Never giving up
Can always come back even from 3 goal initial lead.

It is so deserving and Congratulations to Barca
