Barcelona eased to their third successive La Liga title with a low-key 1-1 draw away to Levante last night to retain their crown with two games to spare.

The party kicked off in the 28th minute when Seydou Keita headed Pep Guardiola's side in front.

Levante put a dampener on proceedings when the on-loan Manchester City striker Felipe Caicedo capitalised on a Gerard Pique error to secure a draw. The point was enough to wrap up the league title ahead of Real Madrid.
