Barcelona have won the Spanish La Liga title for the first time since 2019 after thrashing Espanyol 4-2 on Sunday.
The Catalan giants clinched their 27th Spanish championship with an emphatic derby victory, with Robert Lewandowski scoring twice, alongside Alejandro Balde and Jules Kounde’s goals.
The win takes Barcelona to 85 points from 34 fixtures.
Xavi Hernandez’s men are 14 points clear of rivals Real Madrid with four rounds of matches left.
On the other side, it was a painful experience in the English premier league as Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard admitted that his team’s Premier League title hope seems over following their 3-0 defeat to Brighton on Sunday.
According to Odegaard, Arsenal’s defeat to Brighton at the Emirates Stadium is a tough one for the Gunners to take.
Speaking to Sky Sports, the former Real Madrid midfielder said: “Yeah, it feels like that [whether the title is over]. It’s going to be very difficult now, we have to be honest. It is tough to take.
“It is not a good feeling at the moment. The way we played, particularly in the second half, I don’t know what happened, to be honest. It feels like there’s no hope now.”
Three goals from Julio Enciso, Deniz Undav and Pervis Estupinan gave Brighton the victory over Mikel Arteta’s side.
