Barcelona are on the brink of another title
Barcelona’s win propelled them 11 points clear of Atletico Madrid with just seven games left to play, meaning Ernesto Valverde’s men are on the brink of yet another title.
A win for Atletico would have reduced the gap to five points, but late goals from Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi were enough for victory in a hard-fought game.
Barcelona now look destined to continue their domestic dominance and land their eighth title in 11 seasons, while the treble remains very much on.
The champions have three games left at home, against Sociedad, Getafe and Levante and play Huesca, Alavés, Celta and Eibar away.
