Jordi Alba earned Barcelona a 2-1 La Liga win at Real Betis on Saturday, securing Xavi Hernandez's side Champions League qualification and edging them closer to a spot at the lucrative Spanish Super Cup finals. Alba received a precise pass from Dani Alves in the final seconds of the game and lashed the ball past goalkeeper Rui Silva with a superbly-taken, first-time volley. With the league title already sealed by Real Madrid, Barcelona are now second on 69 points in the standings, five points clear of Sevilla in third and eight ahead of Atletico Madrid in fourth, both with one game in hand. "We have taken a weight off our shoulders. It could have been a more complicated and difficult season," Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez told reporters. "It is clear that we have to play better. We have to analyse it, but we have made a titanic effort from November until now. We will be in the Champions League, the competition we deserve. Now we want to be second (in the league)."
