On 12 March, Barcelona beat Athletic Bilbao 1–0 away, with Raphinha scoring the only goal of the match. The win helped keep the 9 point lead at the top of the table ahead of the El Clásico.[127] [128] This was Barcelona's 19th clean sheet in the league in which they have conceded only eight goals in 25 matches, breaking the record for fewest goals conceded after 25 matches, held jointly by Deportivo La Coruña in the 1993–94 season and Atlético Madrid in the 1990–91 season, both teams conceding 10 goals in 25 games.[129]

On 19 March, Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 2–1 in the El Clásico.

After the international break, the team continued where they left off, winning against Elche 4–0 away on the first day of the month.

Aside from Christensen's goal, Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha also contributed to the win with a goal each, and the last goal was an own goal scored by Real Betis' midfielder Guido Rodríguez.[151] [152] The match also had a special significance because 15-year-old La Masia graduate Lamine Yamal became the youngest ever appearance maker for Barça smashing the record which had been held by Armand Martinez Sagi since 2 April 1922. Martinez Sagi was aged 15 years, 11 months and five days when he appeared in a 1–1 draw against Sporting de Gijón.[153] [154]

May

On 2 May, Barça got a hard fought 1–0 victory against Osasuna. Jordi Alba was the hero after coming on as a substitute in the 76th minute and scoring with an astonishing volley in 85th minute to give the team the win in epic fashion.[155] [156] Marc-André ter Stegen broke the club all time record for most league clean sheets in a single season by achieving 25 league clean sheets this season, beating the 24 clean sheets record previously achieved by Andoni Zubizarreta in the 1986–87 season, and the most league clean sheets kept in a season in the 21st century, 23 clean sheets previously achieved by Claudio Bravo in the 2014–15 season.[157] If Barcelona defeat city rivals Espanyol they could win La Liga.[158]

The new Camp Nou will have a retractable roof covered in 30,000 square metres of solar panels and will have 105,000 seating capacity.[175] [176] [177]

Barcelona marked the special occasion with a 3–0 win over Mallorca, with Ansu Fati scoring twice and Gavi scoring once.[178] [179] [180] It was also a special occasion since it was the last match at the Camp Nou for both club legends Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba, both of whom played for 80 minutes and came off the pitch to a long and emotional standing ovation and applause from the spectators.[181] [182] [183] Marc-André ter Stegen earned his 26th clean sheet of the season, equalling the all-time record in the league, set by Deportivo La Coruña's Francisco Liaño in the 1993–94 season.[184] [185]

Tributes were made before and after the match to honor Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba and the Camp Nou.[186]

On 6 June, Barcelona ended the season with a friendly match in Japan against Japanese side Vissel Kobe, in honor of Barcelona legend Andrés Iniesta who played his last match for Vissel Kobe after five years at the Japanese club.[195] [196] [197] Barcelona got a comfortable 2–0 win in front of 47,335 fans at the Japan National Stadium in Tokyo.[198] [199] Franck Kessié and Eric García got on the scoresheet with a goal each.[200] It was a match of debuts, with Barcelona B youngsters Dani Rodríguez, Pau Prim, Héctor Fort, Marc Guiu, Unai Hernández, and new signing Julián Araujo, making their debuts for the first team.[201]
