Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola and leading scorer Lionel Messi described their 2011 La Liga crown as the toughest of titles after securing top spot with a 1-1 draw at Levante today. Seydou Keita's header put the Catalans ahead and, despite Gerard Pique's error allowing Felipe Caicedo to level, Pep Guardiola's men held on to secure the trophy.
It was a third league championship in three years for the Catalan club but it was a far from vintage performance as they contented themselves with a point at the Ciutat de Valencia stadium where they also won the 2005 league title.
The draw left them on 92 points with two matches left, six ahead of arch-rivals Real Madrid who they bettered in head-to-head matches 6-1.
