Fans celebrated in the streets after the result, with Al Jazeera saying Barcelona fans filled the streets in wild celebration after the 2-0 win over Real Madrid at Camp Nou.

The match was watched by a grieving Flick, who was on the touchline after the death of his father, and players from both teams wore black armbands with a moment of silence before kickoff, according to FOX Sports.

Pedri dedicated the title to Hansi Flick after the Clasico win, telling reporters, “We wanted to do it for him, for everything he’s given us and for the loss he’s suffered – this is dedicated to him in heaven following the loss of his father.”

Frenkie de Jong also spoke after the game, saying, “Every title is special, but this one is even more so because we won it at home against Madrid.”

Al Jazeera reported that supporters marked back-to-back league triumphs under Barca’s manager Hansi Flick, with fireworks, flags and flares lighting up the city.

FOX Sports added that Flick said, “I will never forget this day. It was a tough day for me,” as he reflected on the news that his father had passed away overnight and the team’s performance in the clásico.

The BBC said Barcelona’s title was clinched with an emphatic 14-point margin and that Flick has won the title in his two seasons in charge, while it also described Barca’s 100% home record and a run of form that included winning their past 11 consecutive matches.

The BBC further reported that Barcelona have won 42 of their 53 games this term, a win rate of 79%, and that Flick arrived in May 2024 when Real had won the Champions League and La Liga and added Kylian Mbappe.

Looking ahead, France 24 said Barcelona remain on course to match the record of 100 points in a league season and can win all their home matches if they defeat Real Betis in the one remaining match.

FOX Sports framed the wider context by noting Madrid’s second consecutive season without a major title, while also describing altercations in training that led the club to fine Federico Valverde and Aurélien Tchouaméni 500,000 euros ($589,000) each.
