Barca wins La Liga 2022/23 4 rounds early

Winning against Espanyol in round 34 of La Liga helped Barca officially win the championship 4 rounds early.

Before entering the 34th round of La Liga, Barca had 11 points more than second-placed Real Madrid but had played one game less. Therefore, if they defeat Espanyol, who are struggling at the bottom of the table, coach Xavi's team will officially be crowned champions 4 rounds early.

Barca's determination to win was soon realized. In the 11th minute, receiving a cross from the left wing by Balde, Lewandowski easily tapped the ball in from close range to open the scoring for the away team.

Nine minutes later, coach Xavi's team doubled the lead. Pedri skillfully dribbled the ball into the Espanyol penalty area and then passed it to Balde who scored.

In the remaining minutes of the first half, Barca continued to completely dominate the game. Before the break, the away team scored the third goal after Lewandowski completed his double.

Right at the beginning of the second half, the home team's net shook again. Receiving a pass from Frenkie De Jong, Kounde moved skillfully and headed the ball close to the goal, forcing goalkeeper Pacheco to go into the net to pick the ball up for the fourth time.

After this goal, the away team slowed down, creating conditions for Espanyol to counterattack. After a few missed opportunities, the home team reduced the score to 1-4 thanks to Puado in the 73rd minute. In the final minutes of injury time, Joselu managed to score another honorable goal for the home team at Cornella-El Prat.

In the end, Barca won 4-2 in the Catalan derby. This victory helped coach Xavi and his team officially win the 2022/23 La Liga championship 4 rounds early./.
