FC Barcelona wrapped up their title-winning La Liga season in memorable style. A brace from Raphinha led to a 3-1 victory over Real Betis, making Barcelona the first team to win all 19 home matches in a 38-game La Liga season, which started in 1997-98.
Raphinha set the pace in the 28th minute with a smartly taken free-kick that caught Betis goalkeeper Alvaro Valles off guard at his near post. The Brazilian doubled Barcelona’s lead just after the hour mark as he took advantage of a loose pass and scored.
