"Barcelona registered a win over Real Betis last night with a 3-1 scoreline as Raphinha scored twice and Joao Cancelo put the icing on the cake. The performance, however, was not very convincing. Los Verdiblancos had their chances to get back into the game but failed to capitalise on any of them until they were controversially handed a penalty by VAR. Despite getting back into the game briefly, however, Real Betis never really got close to equalising and Barcelona ran away with the game after Joao Cancelo's goal."
"So far this season, Barcelona have, after all, been invincible at home with an unstoppable record playing in front of their own fans in La Liga. 18 match days had been played at home ahead of last night's game, both at Montjuic and at the Spotify Camp Nou, and Barcelona had a 100% win record in the 18 games and took all 54 points possible. Last night's win over Real Betis ensured that they finish strong and that they close the season with 19 wins in 19 La Liga games at home."
"Going unbeaten at home is one thing, but winning all 57 possible points is a really special affair, and Barcelona have now become the first team ever to win all 19 games at home in the history of a 20-team La Liga. Having missed out on 100 points, this record will ensure Hansi Flick's Barcelona are remembered in the history books for a very special record that is difficult to match."
Barcelona won 3-1 against Real Betis, with Raphinha scoring twice and Joao Cancelo sealing the result. The win was not fully convincing, as Real Betis created chances but failed to convert them until a controversial VAR-awarded penalty. Betis briefly regained momentum but never threatened to equalise. Barcelona then pulled away after Cancelo’s goal. The match also completed a historic home run in La Liga, with Barcelona winning all 19 home games and all 57 possible points across 19 matchdays. This made Barcelona the first team in the history of a 20-team La Liga to win every home match in a season.
