FC Barcelona secured its 29th league title in club history, now just three behind Real Madrid’s 32, in the best possible way: a dominant 2-0 victory in the Clásico at Spotify Camp Nou. The team, packed with homegrown talent, played a style of football that resonated with fans, leaving their eternal rival in a deepening crisis after two consecutive trophy-less seasons.
After an incredible sprint following the first-leg Clásico defeat—when the team, then coached by Xabi Alonso, won 2-1 at the Santiago Bernabéu—the Blaugrana clawed back a 19-point deficit to be crowned champions with three games to spare.
So what remains for Hansi Flick and his squad, beyond Monday’s victory parade through Barcelona’s streets and preparing their international players for the upcoming World Cup in the United States, Mexico, and Canada? Here are some challenges to keep them motivated.
**The 100-Point Record**
The first target would be to win the remaining three matches against Alavés, Real Betis, and Valencia. Doing so would equal the 100-point record set by José Mourinho’s Real Madrid in 2011/12 and Tito Vilanova’s Barcelona in 2012/13.
It would also give Hansi Flick his best-ever winning streak in a league campaign. With the victory in the latest Clásico, he already reached 11 consecutive wins, but extending it to 14 would be an unprecedented feat for any team coached by the German manager.
**A Zamora Trophy for Joan García**
Regardless of that streak, simply beating Real Betis in Matchday 37 (Sunday, May 17) would achieve another milestone: a perfect home record, winning all 18 league matches at Camp Nou.
On an individual level, goalkeeper Joan García is on track to secure his first Zamora Trophy as the goalkeeper with the best goals-against average in La Liga. Currently, he leads the rankings with 20 goals conceded in 29 matches (a coefficient of 0.69) and 15 clean sheets. His main rival, Thibaut Courtois, conceded two more goals in the Clásico, totaling 26 in 29 matches (coefficient 0.89) with 11 clean sheets.
For the Sallent-born shot-stopper, this would be the perfect way to close his first season as a Barcelona player, after a difficult start following his move from Espanyol and having to overcome an untimely meniscus injury just when he had established himself in the Camp Nou goal.
