Another player got his first goal for the club in the 53rd minute, Jules Kounde it was this time to make it 4-0. It was too late for a late push from the home side as their two goals by Javi Puado in the 73rd minute and Joselu in the 92nd minute were nothing more than consolation for the hosts.
It was an evening of contrasting feeling for both sides as Barcelona’s celebrations were cut short on the pitch due to the home fans interrupting the celebrations by entering the pitch to chase the Barca players off the pitch and avoid them from celebrating.
Barcelona have won the league title for the 27th time in their history while Espanyol are on the verge of relegation as they are 4 points off safety sitting in 19th position on the league table.
