(PART ONE) Champions and beautiful goodbyes: LaLiga Matchday 38 recap

Published: May 27, 2024, 12:38 a.m.

The 2023-2024 LaLiga season is over! We have quite a few farewells to speak about in out last LaLiga Matchday recap: tears were shed, managers and players were tossed around by the squads, fans got emotional.


Matt Clark (@MattClark_08) and Paco Polit (@pacopolitENG) bring you the lowdown on the \u2018adi\xf3s\u2019 by Toni Kroos, Javier Aguirre, Jagoba Arrasate\u2026 and, yes, Xavi Hern\xe1ndez, whose additional season at Bar\xe7a\u2019s helm came to an abrupt end a few days ago after getting rage-sacked by President Joan Laporta. 


Hansi Flick will be Bar\xe7a\u2019s boss next season, even though Xavi\u2019s stats have stuck pretty close to the template he showed in the successful 2022-2023 season.


With only Real Madrid\u2019s showdown against Dortmund pending, another Champions League final was played this weekend in Bilbao, with over 50,000 in attendance and with Bar\xe7a dominating European football after beating Olympique Lyon (2-0). The lads might have disappointed, but Bar\xe7a\u2019s women\u2019s team has been absolutely brilliant and the shining light in a dramatic season.


Don\u2019t miss the coda with our predictions regarding Luis de la Fuente\u2019s 26-man squad for Spain in the Euro 2024.
