It was only a matter of time, but Barcelona are champions of Spain again, wrapping up their eighth title in 11 years with three games to spare by beating Levante 1-0 on Saturday.

It was the perfect way for the Catalans to warm up for their Champions League semi-final against Liverpool, with Lionel Messi starting on the bench before coming on to score the winning goal.

Messi has now won 10 league titles with the club, more than any other player, and he raised aloft the trophy at the Camp Nou to start the party.

"To win the title with a distance and gap is difficult with the rivals we have. We've done it two years in a row," coach Ernesto Valverde said.

The hope now is that Barca can go on to complete a treble, with a Copa del Rey final against Valencia to come as well.
