Watched by its grieving coach, Barcelona won its second straight Spanish league
title and 29th overall with a 2-0 win over Real Madrid at Camp Nou on Sunday.
Goals by Marcus Rashford in the ninth minute and Ferran Torres in the 18th gave
Barcelona the victory and an insurmountable 14-point advantage over its fierce
rival with three rounds remaining in La Liga.
Barcelona coach Hansi Flick was in the dugout for Sunday's clasico following
the death of his father, which Barcelona announced hours before kickoff.
A draw would also have been enough for the Catalan club to seal the title.
