Hansi Flick watched as Barcelona beat Real Madrid 2-0 at Spotify Camp Nou on Monday morning to clinch the LaLiga title, the manager at the center of a season that has run toward dominance.
In barcelona match today Marcus Rashford opened the scoring with a free-kick after nine minutes and Ferran Torres added a second following a Dani Olmo heel flick; Flick's side needed just 20 minutes to put the game and the title beyond Real Madrid and the final score read 2-0.
The result confirmed Barcelona as LaLiga champions for the second season in a row under Hansi Flick, their 29th LaLiga title overall, and extended their lead over Real Madrid to 14 points as the 2025/26 season approaches its close.
Barcelona sealed the crown at Spotify Camp Nou on Monday morning and the city responded with an open-top bus parade in the Catalonia capital on Tuesday. Flick told a press conference ahead of the visit to Alavés that the club still has work to do: "The team, and I, want 100 points, and for that we have to win the three games we have left." He added, "Over the last few days they’ve shown me I’m in the right place, and I really appreciate that."
There are cracks and contradictions around the victory. Barcelona were eliminated from the Champions League by Atlético Madrid this season, and Real Madrid are described as being in controversy, in-fighting, and a dressing room crisis — a backdrop that shaped how much this Clasico meant to both sides. Meanwhile, sources say Flick's father died overnight during the title celebrations, a personal blow that landed amid public triumph.
The numbers inside the squad underline why Flick can still push for more. Lamine Yamal played 28 LaLiga games in the 25/26 season and recorded 16 goals and 12 assists; Pedri played 27 LaLiga games and recorded 2 goals and 8 assists. At the back, Joan García featured in 29 LaLiga games and finished the league with 20 goals against and 15 clean sheets, while Eric García played 32 LaLiga games and recorded 1 goal and 2 assists.
With three league matches still to play, Flick's demand for perfection frames the immediate agenda. He has made clear that winning the title does not change the team's targets: to secure maximum points across the remaining fixtures and try to reach the 100-point mark he set publicly.
Even as Barcelona celebrated a 2-0 El Clasico that clinched their 29th LaLiga crown, the season's unresolved strains — a Champions League exit, a rival club in turmoil and a manager coping with personal loss — mean the next three matches will matter in ways that go beyond silverware. As Flick put it plainly, "what matters is the team, and every individual achievement comes because the team is doing well."
