1. Barça will win La Liga. It is only a matter of weeks. Perhaps, days. In fact, they could already be champions next Sunday. All they need is for Flick's team to win on Saturday in Pamplona and for Real Madrid not to win on Sunday at Espanyol's ground, and the twenty-ninth league title will be official. It would be ironic if, without playing, Barça won it because an Espanyol team desperate for points ended up gifting them the title. Everyone looks out for themselves, but in football – as in life – there are amusing paradoxes. Whatever the moment Barça is proclaimed champion, fans must refrain from going to Canaletes. Forbidden. The upper part of La Rambla is under construction, the emblematic fountain is covered, and, around it, temporary fences would be a dangerous trap for the thousands of Barça fans who would want to gather there. Barça and the City Council —“of the city that bears our club’s name”— should inform Barça fans this very Monday that La Rambla is waterlogged and should explain where the title will be massively celebrated when the moment arrives. 

Now yes, Barça is the champion of the LeagueThe Blaugrana secured their title on Thursday after a hard-fought derby with Espanyol, which they ultimately won by two goals. The players' euphoria was evident after the final whistle, although the tension felt on the pitch and in the stands at Cornellà-El Prat—and the sprinklers, which were turned on immediately after the match—quickly forced the celebrations to move to the locker room. How did Hansi Flick's team experience the victory behind closed doors? What did they do when they left the stadium? How did the fans experience it at Canaletes? We gather together the best moments of the La Liga celebrations, which will continue this Friday with the iconic street through the streets of Barcelona and will culminate with a party on Sunday at the Olympic Stadium.
