Incredible scene after Barcelona clinched the Spanish league title
Barcelona may have clinched the La Liga title with a 2-0 victory over Espanyol, but it was the post-match moments that truly resonated with fans across the country.
After a heated Catalan derby, where Lamine Yamal shone brightest, Espanyol’s ground staff tried to dampen Barça’s celebrations—literally—by turning on the sprinklers. With tensions high, the team quietly retreated to the locker room, their title celebrations kept low-key out of respect and caution.
But what followed turned the night into something unforgettable.
Instead of heading back with the squad, four players—Dani Olmo, Pedri, Eric Garcia, and Inigo Martinez—decided to make a detour. They rented bicycles and pedaled across the city to visit teammate Ferran Torres, who had just undergone emergency surgery for appendicitis and was sidelined for the rest of the campaign.
Ferran, who had been a key figure in Barça’s resurgent second half under Hansi Flick, with 19 goals and seven assists, couldn’t be on the pitch—but he wasn’t forgotten. His teammates brought the trophy spirit to his hospital bedside, turning a personal setback into a moment of collective strength.
The moment of the night: Pedri, Íñigo Martínez, Dani Olmo, and Eric García left the title celebrations and went straight to the hospital by bike to visit Ferran Torres as he had to undergo surgery for appendicitis.

The gesture was simple, yet powerful—a group of champions choosing camaraderie over celebration, loyalty over luxury. For many, it was a reminder that true victory isn’t just measured in points, but in the bonds that hold a team together.
