Barcelona are champions of Spain!


Stand up for the champions! The fantastic Lionel Messi worked his magic again today at the Vicente Calderon.... Lols. Messi's strike at the 64 minutes was enough to hand the visitors the League title.

The funny thing about this whole thing is
that it was a one all draw at Camp Nou that handed Atletico Madrid the title last season.

Barcelona had quite some chances to extend the scoreline through Neymar and Pedro, but they both couldn't convert their chances.

Both Godin and Torres were threatening, but Lionel Messi's goal soon ran them out of steam...lols

For the last ten minutes Mathieu came on for Alba to counteract Atletico’s aerial threat and Xavi replaced Iniesta as Atlético tired and Barça enjoyed long periods of possession, as the clock wound down – a long range effort from Siqueira was tipped over by Bravo, but nothing was going to stop Barça now and as the final whistle went, the players celebrated on the pitch with the home fans joining in the applause for the new La Liga champions!
