Barcelona have taken another step closer to securing the La Liga title with a routine 4-0 win over Real Betis.
La Blaugrana remain 11 points ahead of El Clasico rivals Real Madrid, as the season enters its final phase and Xavi’s hosts keep up their unbeaten home league record with another three points at the Camp Nou.
Three first half goals did the damage for Barcelona, as Andreas Christensen headed home his first club goal.
Robert Lewandowski netted his first home goal since February and Raphinha made it 3-0 to the hosts before the break.
The final stages created history for Barcelona, as Ansu Fati’s strike was deflected home by Guido Rodriguez before Xavi gave a club debut to Lamine Yamal.
