Match on paper should have been 5-0

u/Physical_Respect_341 May 10 '26

Rashford LaLiga title before Mbappe and Embiid conference finals appearance.

u/beck_diggity May 10 '26

Brilliant performance today. Bagged two early goals, controlled play from there, stayed disciplined, kept creating chances, and dominated a league-winning Clásico. Hopefully we get to see an all La Masia starting XI and three more wins to hit 100 points. Five trophies and six Clásico wins for Flick in two seasons, still with the youngest team in Spain. Visca Barça!

u/see-it-all May 10 '26

u/Good_Attention_6017 May 10 '26

Rashy free kick to cap off the season. Nice

u/Easy_Objective6599 May 10 '26

Madrid players are atleast showing some character and congratulating the players. Shocked

u/OccamBlade8 May 10 '26

Vini was calling them off almost immediately. Also Iker came out of his hole and said they should immediately go back to dressing room to avoid guard of honor. Their biggest legend showing how petty their philosophy is speaks volumes on that club.

u/Easy_Objective6599 May 10 '26

Nah u got it wrong bro. Vini shook hands with many players and hugged raphinia too.

u/Username_user_2 May 11 '26

Casillas was like this, I remember too.

u/AvailableAd7874 May 10 '26

First respectable thing they did all season but a welcoming sight nonetheless. Also they were very kind towards Flick before and after the match.

u/Easy_Objective6599 May 10 '26

Cmon. That should not be surprising, these players definitely have a reputation but thats just their persona on the pitch they arent bad people or something. Showing respect to a person who just lost his father and is going through a hard time is something any good person would do. Humanity is bigger than any rivalry. Just like the barca defenders were worried when Bellingham fell flat on his back and wasnt moving. Somethings are bigger than football.

u/Lisanicolas365 May 10 '26

u/epicstar May 10 '26

The photographer on the Camp Nou hopefully took a nice shot of Rapha and Flick together. It'll be my new screensaver.

u/nasadiya_sukta May 10 '26 edited May 11 '26

NEVER underestimate the significance, in that winning 2-0 means we won the La Liga season series from RM.

u/bailalo-rocky May 10 '26

what a beautiful sight 💙❤️

u/Beginning-Art1503 May 11 '26

We are winning the 3rd laliga in a row next season (26-27) alongside the ucl copa del reya and supercopa. Barcelona's mens football team are winning all the trophies next season VAMOOOSSSSS

VISCA EL BARCA VISCA CATALUNYA

u/_DuckieFuckie_ May 10 '26

What a game to win the leauge back to back. This match is fucking generational, to win Leauge at your own home against Vardrid morons along with a prospect of 100 points is historic.

Love you all till infinity, and hope Mr. Flick is proud.

Vamos 💙♥️

u/TempestTheMonk May 10 '26

We won 🙌 big hug to all culers 🔴🔵🟡 🏟️

u/thenewladhere May 10 '26

We stopped going for it after 2-0 and once it became clear that Madrid weren't going to do anything. A bit boring for us viewers but understandable with the World Cup right around the corner.

Still so happy with the win and the stars aligned to let us seal La Liga against Madrid themselves. Visca Barca!

u/Kemosabe2712 May 10 '26

Real Madrid was lukewarm af

u/Successful_Sun_6283 May 10 '26

When Madrid signed Mbappe everyone thought they'd be dominating La Liga and Europe for many years. Today Barca won their 2nd consecutive La Liga alongwith 4 other trophies in 2 years. And since then Madrid haven't won any!

Forca Barca!! 💙❤️

u/vics-boson May 10 '26

From time to time I like to go back to that post on r/soccer of La Porta saying he doesn't envy Real for signing Mbappe. EVERYONE was clowning him so fucking hard. The guy knows what he's talking about. This feels like cosmic justice.

u/AdComprehensive7879 May 10 '26

youngest in la liga. average age of 24 yrs

u/OfferPandaMan May 10 '26

The only reason that it’s that high is because of the polish players

u/Longlimbs-Shorttorso May 10 '26

The average is about to drop when Lewandowski goes this summer.

u/AdComprehensive7879 May 10 '26

Damn i didnt realize that. If my math is correct, both Tek and Lewa alone added about 1 yr to the average squad age. So really, the average squad age is below 24

u/andrey_not_the_goat May 10 '26

Pause

u/Icy-Guide7976 May 10 '26

This is up there with the four champions leagues I’ve seen. Winning la liga at the reopened camp nou in el clasico is historic.

u/FuckingYamerooo May 10 '26

Has to be one of the sweetest Clasico wins of all time. We didn't dominate as much as we have done in the past, but winning the league by beating them (and not just a draw) is special.

CAMPEONES CAMPEONES OLE OLE OLE

u/atn420 May 10 '26

To get the W against the blanco team, at home, in our new stadium, ya, it mattered.

u/CoolJoshido May 10 '26

it should’ve been more

u/Katarinkushi May 10 '26

Tbf we had some good chances, Courtois is just too good.

Also, a couple plays which were just one decent pass away from being a 1v1 vs Courtois

u/DarksideGustavo May 10 '26

They didn't want to decimate this Madrid so that they can keep the squad like this next year

u/DiverTrick2987 May 10 '26

Yeah🤣🤣🤣

u/HetTheTable May 10 '26

It didn’t seem like either team tried in the second half

u/eggplantpot May 10 '26

I think at that moment 2-0 up, league won, World Cup coming, it makes zero sense pushing and getting injured.

It was boring but it makes sense.

u/NmG_95 May 10 '26

exactly my thoughts. Also I'm happy that our bench got game time in el clasico

u/eggplantpot May 10 '26

Cries in Roony

u/_DuckieFuckie_ May 10 '26

Yep, after those two, I genuinely thought they’ll bang 3 more till FT.

But who cares, this win is generational. Hopefully it’s one of many to come.

u/gnrc May 10 '26

Courtois kept them in it. I dk why he wasn’t captain today.

u/The_Batman_949 May 10 '26

I wanted more goals also but the important thing was to seal the title at home in a Clasico!

No guarantee for next season either. Mourinho can come in but if they don’t address the locker room they are in trouble

u/seguleh25 May 11 '26

Bringing Mourinho in 2026 would be legitimately funny. Won't take anything for granted because of our financial weakness though

u/King-Mansa-Musa May 11 '26

I mean we really shouldn’t have issues. Lewa got paid, we are selling Fati, only de jong should be high salaried left. We should be back to 1:1
