Real Madrid secured a well-deserved La Liga title on Saturday with a 3-0 victory over Cadiz, while Girona’s stunning 4-2 win against Barcelona sealed the deal.
Carlo Ancelotti’s men efficiently handled Cadiz, paving the way for their championship triumph as last season’s champions faltered against Girona. This victory marked Real Madrid’s record-extending 36th La Liga title.
Girona’s remarkable win not only ensured Real Madrid’s title but also secured their maiden qualification for the Champions League, a historic feat for the Catalan side in just their fourth season in the top flight.
Despite heavy rotation ahead of the Champions League clash with Bayern Munich, Real Madrid remained dominant. Goals from Brahim Diaz, Jude Bellingham, and Joselu sealed the crucial victory.
“We’ve had a spectacular Liga campaign,” Ancelotti praised his team. “We’ve made few errors, and the advantage is deserved.”
Real Madrid’s comfortable win over Cadiz placed them 14 points clear of Barcelona, who finished third with only 12 points left to play for. Girona, with their second victory over Barcelona this season, trailed Madrid by 13 points.
Girona’s coach, Michel Sanchez, expressed pride in his team’s historic achievement, while Barcelona’s coach, Xavi, lamented their inability to compete.
The day also saw Atletico Madrid secure a 1-0 victory over Mallorca, further solidifying their fourth-place position.
With celebrations in Madrid and reflections in Barcelona, the La Liga season nears its conclusion, leaving fans eager for what lies ahead in European competitions.
