The Result Carries Weight
Barcelona finished their LaLiga home schedule undefeated, closing the Nou Camp chapter with a 3-1 victory over Real Betis that left no doubt about who owned their own ground this season.
Raphinha opened the scoring with a free-kick just before the half-hour mark, curling one in from range. The Brazil winger added his second midway through the second half, punishing a defensive error from Héctor Bellerín to double the lead.
The record does not need much decoration; it already does the talking.
The Moment That Swung It
Isco converted a penalty heading into the final 20 minutes to give Betis brief hope, but Joao Cancelo's sweetly-struck effort restored the two-goal cushion and sealed the win.
The result gave Hansi Flick's side a perfect 19 wins from 19 home matches—a flawless home record in a 20-team campaign that no other team has matched in this format.
The Race Tightens
Robert Lewandowski made his farewell appearance at the stadium, though the night belonged to the width of Raphinha's boot.
