A record breaking Barcelona confirmed the honorary title of winter champions after beating Málaga 4-1 in the last match on Sunday evening. At the halfway stage of the season Guardiola's side have beaten their own record points haul from only last year, as well as clocking up a best ever seventeenth win in a row and a run of 28 games without defeat. With only eight minutes gone Iniesta latched on to a Dani Alves cross to fire in a shot off the post, and after Xavi hit the bar, David Villa ran on to Messi's pass to score a second under the legs of Sergio Asenjo. Pedro added a third with ten minutes still to go to the break after Asenjo saved from Iniesta, and the keeper had to be at his best to stop a couple more efforts from Messi before the half time whistle. After the restart the new look Málaga did get one back with a well struck Duda free kick, but Villa scored his second of the night after Xavi set him up a few minutes later to take their total tally in La Liga this campaign to a record 62 goals.
