Lionel Messi scored his 24th goal as a substitute to seal Barcelona's 26th La Liga title success on Saturday night.
Match Reports
Barcelona wrapped up their 26th LaLiga title as Lionel Messi came off the bench to score the winner in a 1-0 victory over Levante on Saturday that could be the catalyst for treble success.
The result at Camp Nou means Ernesto Valverde's men sit nine points ahead of nearest rivals Atletico Madrid, against whom they boast a superior head-to-head record, with three games to go.
And Barca still have the chance to lift two more trophies, with a Champions League semi-final against Liverpool and a Copa del Rey final with Valencia to come.
Match Events
2' CHANCE! Suarez's shot saved
SAVE! Aitor makes a fine save to deny Suarez at the near post with his feet after Dembele and Vidal combined to set up the Uruguayan in the right inside channel.
25' Coutinho with a great chance!
CHANCE! Suarez sends an offload down the left flank for Alba, who stands up a cross into the middle. Coutinho rises with a free header in the box, only to head his effort straight at Aitor.
62' GOAL! Barcelona 1-0 Levante (Messi)
GOALLLLLLLLL!!!! MESSI GETS THE BREAKTHROUGH!!! 1-0 BARCA!! The Catalan club break the deadlock and who else but Messi gets the goal. Dembele opened up the Levante defence with a run into the middle. However, he and Suarez were unable to forge a way through to goal. Vidal ensured that the visitors could not break out and he forced the ball towards Messi. The forward took one touch to control before placing his strike into the bottom corner, beating the hand of Aitor.

Barca we are Messi dependant that has to change next season... Suarez is poor he has done enough for barca.. He doesn't need to be a barca starter next season.... To beat Liverpool we must not play awful like we did today.. Suarez is poor finishing, poor passes he does not need to be a first choice center forward again next season.... God bless barca God bless all the fans and the football world

Such Magnality... How can this be luck? How can top level for the whole of your senior career be down to being fortunate? How can u top both goal and assist charts by accident? How can u be part of the top three best player from 2007-17, come 5th in 2018 and it was like a scandal with not just fans but players, coaches and journalists contesting the decision... How can u score most goals as both a starter and a substitute? How can u be the best player in all the international competition you've played, U-20 golden ball in 2005, Olympic best player in 2008, World cup golden ball in 2014 and Copa America best player in 2015 and we still want more, when we don't demand half as much from our club's best players... How can you define the most successful Barcelona era without being a great player?... I present to you, Lionel Andrés Messi THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!

very unsatisfactory display of football in second half from Barca defensively . except pique nobody was positioning Right.. If a team like levante can press us that much it scares me to think about Liverpool.. Also the substitution why would you substitute Arthur... and also bringing out Roberto??? Not holding possession... It was all dreadful rotation from valverde except for. Messi... also he should rest Rakitic... Man he is wearing off.....
Messi won his 10th titles in Laliga🏆👑🏆

Barcelona without the best footballer in history Messi is a lucksture team.Other players should not just be sitting & expect magic from Messi.They should know that one day mercurial Messi well exit & Barca minus Messi will be a Levante.They should not be sitting expecting Messi to do everything for the team & start praising him.Suarez you are letting Barca down as we want goals from you,the way you used to score,Dembele assist Messi please.

today it may not fare discussion of the player performances.after seeing the match impossible to resist....coutinho...demble..well they both are high valued (those who claims over valued) 100%correct. this is no FOOTBALL sense dribble run or even gallary shows in all respect they failed. demble I don't understand his game sense how he minus the ball to messi momentarily when messi pass??? there should be a pay check against performance and nonperforming...from club owners otherwise these waste......rs will roll on....
