Hansi Flick Wins Domestic Treble in Dream Debut Season at Barcelona

Abhinav Goel

Barelona's victory over Espanyol marked the third and final jewel in the treble crown, delivering the La Liga league title.

Barcelona have officially completed a sensational domestic treble under head coach Hansi Flick, capping off an unforgettable 2024-25 campaign. Barca’s domestic treble was confirmed with 2-0 derby win over Espanyol, which sealed their 28th La Liga title.

Thursday night’s win at the RCDE Stadium was symbolic of Flick’s tenure so far. It was the culmination of a remarkable resurgence under the German manager, who has brought back energy, unity, and a winning mentality to a Barcelona side that had struggled for consistency in recent seasons.

Flick’s youthful and fearless side has already been victorious in the Copa del Rey and Spanish Super Cup this season. With 27 wins from 36 matches and 85 points on the board, Barcelona now hold an unassailable seven-point lead over arch-rivals Real Madrid.

A Treble To Remember

Barcelona’s first domestic trophy of the campaign came with a 5–2 thrashing of Real Madrid in January’s Spanish Super Cup final in Saudi Arabia. That momentum carried through to April, when they edged Los Blancos again in a thrilling 3–2 Copa del Rey final in Seville. Their latest victory over Espanyol marked the third and final jewel in the treble crown, delivering the La Liga league title.

What has stood out this season is not just the silverware, but the style in which it was won. Led by emerging talents like 17-year-old Lamine Yamal, Barcelona played with audacity and flair throughout the season. Flick’s tactical flexibility and unwavering belief in his squad turned potential into results. Even when they were trailing, Barcelona consistently found ways to turn the games around.

The only blemish on an otherwise flawless campaign for Barcelona came in the UEFA Champions League. Barca were minutes away from reaching the final in Munich, leading Inter Milan 6–5 on aggregate in the dying moments of the second leg. But Francesco Acerbi’s stoppage-time equaliser pushed the match to extra time, where Davide Frattesi’s strike ended Barcelona’s European dream.
