Barcelona have defeated Real Madrid to win their 29th La Liga title with just three games left in the season, thanks to a spectacular first-half free kick from Marcus Rashford.

Hansi Flick’s team easily won the El Clásico at the Nou Camp after the England forward gave the home team the lead, and Ferran Torres scored the second goal with a beautiful finish.

Barcelona are now seven titles behind record winners Real after winning Spain’s top flight in back-to-back seasons.
