Overview
- Barcelona, which defeated Real Madrid on Sunday at Camp Nou, secured the 2025–26 LaLiga championship in the rivalry match known as El Clásico.
- Outside the stadium before kickoff, groups of supporters hurled objects, flares, and stones at both team buses, police intervened, and authorities reported no injuries.
- Real Madrid’s recent internal clashes led the club to fine the fighters €500,000 each, and Federico Valverde suffered a cranial trauma that will sideline him for about two weeks.
- Kylian Mbappé did not play the match, and coach Álvaro Arbeloa said he could not guarantee the forward’s return this season and acknowledged, “Our season has finished.”
- Barcelona and city officials had permits and logistics ready for a title parade that would move through central areas if the league was clinched.
