PETE JENSON: Barcelona beat Porto 1-0 in Xavi's 100th game as mayor of Barcelona. It wasn't pretty and there was collateral damage, but his team came first after two victories and the club was crowned champions. Referee Anthony Taylor dismissed Gavi late in the game, but Barcelona lost Robert Lewandowski to injury after half an hour, but Ferran Torres' goal and outstanding center-backs Jules Kounde and Ronald Araujo's superb performances helped garner the result. The first half of the year was tumultuous. Fabio Cardoso's traumatic encounter with Kounde meant he was booked, but two others from Barcelona were also missing. Taylor provided Araujo with a card for Cardoso, as well as one for Xavi for protesting.
