Barca cruised to the title in Spain, winning 27 and drawing nine of their 36 fixtures ahead of Sunday’s clash but, despite a valiant comeback, could not prise a draw from the jaws of defeat.

Ernesto Valverde’s men were 5-4 down at one stage following a hat-trick from Emmanuel Boateng (9, 30, 49) and an Enis Bardhi brace (46, 56) but goals from Philippe Coutinho (38, 59, 64) and a Luis Suarez penalty (71) set up a grandstand finish.

However, Barcelona, who were without rested talisman Lionel Messi, were unable to force the leveller that would have salvaged their unbeaten season.

Is it that barcelona cannot win with out Lionel Messi?

OP it's "lose" not "loose "

Still on the same line dear... Didn't even bother to take the "word" back to the statement... I just wanted to correct the fact that people mix these 2 words "lose" and "loose"...
