Rashford Free-Kick and Torres Strike Crown Barcelona 2025-26 La Liga Champions
Barcelona were confirmed as 2025-26 La Liga champions after defeating Real Madrid 2-0 in El Clasico at the Spotify Camp Nou. Manager Hansi Flick, coping with the recent loss of his father, opted for Marcus Rashford and Ferran Torres in place of the side that beat Osasuna. Rashford curled in a brilliant free-kick on nine minutes, and a slick move saw Fermin Lopez assist Dani Olmo’s backheel for Torres to double the lead. Real Madrid, without injured striker Kylian Mbappe, mustered few clear chances despite Vinicius Jr’s threat. Thibaut Courtois denied a late Torres effort, and the second half ended with only a brief skirmish between players for drama.
