Barcelona edged closer to securing the LaLiga title with a 2-1 win over Osasuna, thanks to late goals from Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres. The victory puts Barcelona at the top of the table with 88 points, a comfortable 14-point lead over second-placed Real Madrid, who still have a game in hand.
Lewandowski opened the scoring in the 81st minute with a header from a Marcus Rashford cross, followed by Torres doubling the lead five minutes later with a composed finish past Sergio Herrera. Despite a late goal from Raul Garcia for Osasuna, it wasn’t enough to stop Barcelona’s march towards the title.
Osasuna posed a threat throughout the match, with goalkeeper Joan Garcia making crucial saves to keep Barcelona in the game. However, it was Barcelona who capitalized on their chances late in the game to secure the important victory.
Torres expressed the significance of the win, acknowledging the tough challenge Osasuna presented. Barcelona’s strong performance under pressure has put them in a prime position to clinch the league title for the second consecutive season.
With only four games left in the season, Barcelona’s win has heightened the pressure on Real Madrid as they aim to secure the LaLiga title once again.
