The 36th round of La Liga ushered in a match, with Barcelona challenging Espanyol as a guest. Barcelona achieved 26 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses in the first 35 league games, squeezing Real Madrid behind. Barcelona reversed and defeated Real Madrid in the last game, giving Barcelona a complete control of the initiative in winning the championship. As long as Barcelona wins this game, they can win the championship in advance. There was no suspense in the end. Barcelona played against Espanyol and won the league championship!

Barcelona lined up 4231 formation in this game. Lewandowski was at the forefront. The offensive combination of Rafinia, Olmo and Yamal jointly attacked. Pedri and De Jong form a double midfielder. Hrad Martin, Christensen, Araujo and Eric Garcia started with four defenders. Szczesni serves as the starting goalkeeper. Garvey and Fati were on standby on the bench.

Barcelona was a little slow in this game and almost lost the goal first. Puado got a great one-on-one chance, but his shot was saved by Szczesny. This is Sczesni's only save in the game, and it is very important to avoid putting Barcelona in trouble early. Rafinia and Lewandowski had a chance afterwards, but neither scored. At the end of the half game, the score is still 0-0!

Yamar's shocking long-range shot in the second half allowed Barcelona to break the deadlock. The 17-year-old Yamal is so powerful. He has scored three goals outside the penalty area since March, the most tied for La Liga players in the same period. The lagging Spaniard was a little anxious to play, and then Carbrella was sent off for a foul. Barcelona was able to gain a numerical advantage. In the final stoppage time, Yamal assisted Ferming to score a goal, setting the final score at 2-0! Barcelona won the championship two rounds ahead of schedule!

60-year-old Frick is a god. He helped the team win the domestic triple championship in his first season in coaching Barcelona. This allowed him to set a record in team history: this is the first time that a Barcelona opponent won the three events of La Liga, Copa del Rey and Super Cup in the same season. At the same time, what is even more incredible is that he led Barcelona to kill Real Madrid four times: first, he swept Real Madrid 4-0 away in the first leg, then defeated Real Madrid 5-2 in the Spanish Super Cup final to win the championship, then defeated Real Madrid 3-2 in the Copa del Rey final to win the championship, and finally defeated Real Madrid 4-3 in the second leg of the league.
