Barcelona congratulated Real Madrid for emerging champions of the 2023/24 La Liga title after their 4-2 defeat at Girona ended their hopes of defending the championship.

Madrid needed just one victory in their final four matches to secure the trophy following their 3-0 triumph against Cadiz.

However, they were handed it prematurely thanks to Barcelona’s misfortune against Girona

Barca were 2-1 up at the break against Girona after strikes from Andreas Christensen and Robert Lewandowski, with the hosts responding through Artem Dovbyk.

However, Portu scored twice either side of Miguel Gutierrez’s effort to help Michel’s side emerge 4-2 winners and move into second place in the table.

In accordance with tradition, Barca posted a congratulatory message to their rivals on social media which reads: “Congratulations to Real Madrid for winning the league title.”

At his post-match press conference, manager Xavi extended his congratulations to Madrid as they were declared champions later in the evening, saying (via Diario AS): “They are to be congratulated. They are the ones who have done the most.”
