Unbeaten Barcelona added to its domestic dominance by winning La Liga for the third time in the last four seasons on Sunday, remaining unbeaten after 34 rounds. Lionel Messi scored a hat trick and Philippe Coutinho added a goal to give Barcelona a 4-2 win at Deportivo La Coruna and an insurmountable 11-point lead over Atletico Madrid.
"We know how difficult it is to win this league," Messi said. "We were better than our rivals. There is a lot of merit to winning this title without any losses."
It was Barcelona's seventh league title in 10 seasons and 25th overall.
