FC Barcelona wrapped up their 2024–25 La Liga season in spectacular style, setting a major record with a 3–0 triumph over Athletic Club at San Mamés. With that victory, the Catalan club became the first team in five years to score over 100 goals in a single La Liga season. Their total of 102 goals is the highest in the league since the 2016–17 campaign, underlining their dominance in Spanish football once again. 

A Historic Season 

This season marked a big turning point for Barcelona. After a few years of ups and downs, they returned to the top under the leadership of new head coach Hansi Flick. In his debut season as manager, Flick led the team to a domestic treble, capturing La Liga, the Copa del Rey, and the Spanish Super Cup titles. 

But it wasn’t just about winning trophies. The team’s attacking football was exciting to watch. Across all competitions, Barcelona scored an incredible 102 goals in Laliga 2024/25. This shows not only their quality but also their consistency from start to finish. 

Robert Lewandowski fired Barcelona into the lead after 14 minutes, scoring both his 100th goal for the club and Barcelona’s 100th goal in La Liga this season. Three minutes later, Lewandowski doubled Barcelona’s lead, with Raphinha’s corner diverted by an Athletic player to the back post where the Polish striker was waiting to head home.

Star Performers Lead the Way 

Brazilian winger Raphinha also had a standout season. Known for his speed and creativity, Raphinha scored 35 goals and provided 26 assists in all competitions. His performances were so strong that Barcelona rewarded him with a new contract until 2028. He quickly became a key player in Flick’s system. 

Seventeen-year-old winger Lamine Yamal emerged as a standout performer this season. He led La Liga with 13 assists and added 9 goals. Demonstrating remarkable skill and maturity well beyond his age. 

A True Team Effort 

One of the most impressive parts of this season was the way the whole team contributed. Many players scored goals for Barcelona. This balance and depth made the team difficult to defend against, as they didn’t rely on just one or two players. It also showed the strength of the squad and how well the players adapted to the new coach’s style. Youngsters and veterans alike played their roles to perfection. 

What’s Next for Barça?

After such a successful season, expectations are high. With Flick at the helm and players like Lamine, Raphinha in top form, the team is aiming for even bigger goals next year, especially in the UEFA Champions League. Barcelona’s record-breaking season sends a clear message: they’re not just back, they’re ready to dominate again.
