Hansi Flick has been named La Liga Coach of the Month for March after guiding Barcelona to a perfect nine points from nine.


Wins at Athletic Club (0-1), a 5-2 demolition of Sevilla at Camp Nou, and Sunday's hard-fought 1-0 over Rayo Vallecano sealed the award. Flick beat Atlético's Simeone and Levante's Luis Castro in the final vote.


It is his third such award this season — he also won in August and October. Barcelona head into the break on 73 points, four clear of Real Madrid.
