On Sunday, all matches of the 37th round of the Spanish "Primera" league were played.
The new country champions emerged at the "Vicente Calderon" stadium. Madrid's "Atletico" tried to resist Barcelona in front of their own fans, but Luis Enrique's team managed a minimal victory and secured the champions' title.
Throughout the 90 minutes, the visitors from Catalonia looked better. In the first half, Diego Simeone's team had their chances, but Claudio Bravo protected his goal reliably.
Barcelona scored the winning goal in the 65th minute, with Lionel Messi being the author of the crucial goal.
Barcelona needed three points to secure the champions' title, which they took from "Atletico". The country's champion becomes "Barcelona" for the 23rd time.
Meanwhile, the second-placed Madrid "Real" easily won 4-1 against Barcelona's "Espanyol" on the road. The match was marked by a hat-trick by Cristiano Ronaldo.
On the other hand, after a draw between "Valencia" and Vigo's "Celta", the intrigue for the fourth place and a ticket to the UEFA Champions League remains. "Bats" remain in the top four with 74 points, but after beating "Almeria", "Sevilla" is only one point behind.
