Barcelona Sign Off La Liga Season in Style with Victory Over Athletic Club
In the final matchday of the 2024/25 La Liga season, Barcelona wrapped up their campaign with a commanding win over Athletic Club at San Mamés, capping off a year in which the Catalan giants secured both the La Liga title and the Copa del Rey.
Prolific striker Robert Lewandowski was at it again, netting a clinical brace to remind fans exactly why he remains Barça’s top scorer this season with an impressive tally of 27 goals. The Polish international’s sharp finishing proved too much for the Basque side’s defence in what was a festive atmosphere rather than a high-stakes encounter.
Dani Olmo, who came off the bench, added the third from the penalty spot — a goal that felt symbolic after a turbulent season surrounding his registration saga, which at times resembled a footballing soap opera.
