Hansi Flick greeted Barcelona's recent displays as “incredible” when they came closer to securing the title in Laliga.
Barca moved seven points free from Real Madrid at the top of the rankings thanks to a 1-0 win over Leganes on Saturday.
Jorge Saenz's own goal was decided, because Barca made the 12 LaLiga matches unbeaten, after only having points fall into those runs twice.
The Blaugrana also has one foot in the semi-final of the Champions League and will be confronted with Madrid in the Copa del Rey final later this month.
“Three points are three points and every match that we fight for 90 minutes, when you see the load that the players have had in recent weeks or days, it is incredible,” said Flick.
“After the international break you see what my players have done, the performance of my team has been incredible. I am very proud of them.”
“It was a perfect game.”
3 – #Barcelona has benefited from three own goals in @Lalalaen 2024/25, more than any other team (3 also from Seville), while #Leganés, with three, the team in the competition with the most own goals scored this campaign. Confusion. pic.twitter.com/zwcatsxqmc

OPTA's supercomputer hands Barca a 91.8% chance to win the title here, although their focus will now turn to the second stage of their Champions League quart finale against Borussia Dortmund.
The Blaugrana Lead aggregated 4-0, so there should be an almighty slip not to continue to the last four.
“We must concentrate on recovery, recovery, recovery,” insisted on Flick.
“That's how it is. We will train [on Sunday] And fly to Dortmund on Monday.
“We don't apologize – we have to recover, but that's our job,” he added.
Barca has won all three of their games against German parties this season in the Champions League and Bayern Munich (4-1) and Dortmund beat twice (3-2 and 4-0).
Prior to this season, they had lost five in a row against German opponents in the competition, with a total score of 19-2.
