Football FC Barcelona crowned champion of Spain for the 27th

FC Barcelona were crowned Spanish champions for the 27th time in their history after their victory against Espanyol Barcelona (4-2) during the 34th day of La Liga, this Sunday, May 14. While there are still four days left before the end of the championship, the Catalans can no longer be caught by Real Madrid, second at 14 points. Despite the scandals and economic difficulties that have marred his season, Barça become Spanish champions again for the first time since 2019. This is the first major title for Xavi as a coach, who until then had only won only a Spanish Super Cup since returning to the Catalan bench in November 2021. It is also the club’s first Spanish league title since Lionel Messi left Paris Saint-Germain in 2021.
