Barcelona have protected their Liga title after a hat-trick from Luis Suarez secured a 3-0 victory over Granada on Saturday.
Real Madrid’s victory away to Deportivo La Coruna was not enough as Barca sealed a comfortable victory to achieve a final points tally of 91 – one more than their fierce rivals – and claim a 24th top-flight crown, GOAL reports on Sunday (May 15).
Suarez tapped in Jordi Alba’s low cross to give Luis Enrique’s men the lead, becoming the first player other than Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo to score 38 goals in a single Liga season since Hugo Sanchez in 1989-90.
Any tension within the Barca camp was eased even further when Suarez headed in from close range just before the break, although they had Marc-Andre ter Stegen to thank for a strong save shortly after half-time which maintained their comfortable advantage.
