Barcelona's Luis Suarez clinches Pichichi crown with 40 goals in La Liga

By -

Luis Suarez locked up the the Pichichi crown as the top goal scorer in La Liga with a hat trick in Barcelona's title-clinching 3-0 win at Granada on Saturday.

The Uruguayan's three goals took him to 40 goals in the league this campaign -- five more than Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored twice on the season's final day.

Suarez is the first player other than Ronaldo or Lionel Messi to win the Pichichi since Diego Forlan in 2009.

Messi finished with 26 goals, third in the league.

Barcelona's Luis Suarez scored three times in the season's final game to him 40 in La Liga.

Suarez used a tremendous late push with 14 goals in his last five games to surpass Ronaldo.

The 29-year-old has 59 goals in all competitions this season, and he can still add to that in the Copa del Rey final against Sevilla on May 22. His previous high was 49 with Ajax in 2009-10.

Though there are some league games remaining on Sunday, his nearest competitor still to play would have to score 22 goals to match him, all but ensuring the Uruguayan's title.
