Carlo Ancelotti has now won titles in La Liga, the Premier League, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 and Serie A after guiding Madrid to a record 35th domestic league ...
Nevertheless, it’s been a title-winning season at home, in Saudi Arabia (where Madrid edged Barcelona in extra time in the semifinal and then beat Athletic Bilbao in the final for the Spanish Super Cup) and could be in Paris as well, if Ancelotti’s side can upend Pep Guardiola’s at the Bernabéu midweek to return to the Champions League final. There was the infamous Champions League group-stage home defeat to Moldova’s Sheriff Tiraspol in September, and it has lost three of its five knockout-stage matches en route to the second leg of the semifinals. As for other major decisions the club will face, Croatian great Luka Modrić is reportedly closing in on another one-year deal to stay put, while Gareth Bale, Isco and Marcelo are all on expiring contracts, too. Of its three league losses, one was a humiliating 4–0 home defeat to Barcelona in March’s edition of El Clásico (a match Benzema missed). Madrid was also bounced from the Copa del Rey in the quarterfinals, ousted by Athletic Bilbao in a 1–0 result. Real Madrid still holds out hope of adding to its record tally of European silverware (13 titles) but it must overcome a 4–3 aggregate deficit to Manchester City in Madrid on Wednesday following their outrageous semifinal first leg in England this past week. For a record 35th time, Real Madrid has won La Liga’s championship, clinching the title with four games to spare following Saturday’s 4–0 win vs.

Real has been the dominant side in Spain this season -- so far winning 25 league games and losing just three -- with Benzema's 42 goals in 42 games spearheading that success. Real has now won 35 league titles -- nine more than rival Barça -- and it means Ancelotti has become the first manager to win the Premier League, the Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1 and La Liga in his coaching career. It is Real's second league title in three years and one Carlo Ancelotti's side has claimed with relative ease having moved an unassailable 16 points ahead of Barcelona with five games left to play this season.

26 The previous best margin of victory in Real's history is 12 points, which they have achieved twice, first in 1960-61 and again in 1974-75. Sergio Ramos had a prolific campaign as well, leading Madrid to the best defensive record in the league and also scoring 11 times. Also transforming into a world-class player this season has been Vinicius Jr., who has become one of the first names on the Real Madrid team sheet. He currently sits on 26 goals from 30 league matches so far this championship term. With the win over Espanyol, Madrid served an ace to clinch the crown.

Good work by Casemiro to flick the ball to Mariano on the short corner, but he's foiled by the woodwork. Then Rodrygo took a ball to the head and needed some time to recover. A show of personality from Rodrygo. Real Madrid up 1-0. 13th min.: Real Madrid hit the post! 71st min.: Real Madrid score a fourth, but it's scratched by the referee. Playing on the left side in place of Vinicius, he combines with compatriot Marcelo and calmly slots home inside the box. With the result no longer in doubt, the second half turned into a celebration with Dani Ceballos putting on a skills show and Madrid getting two more goals. 55th min.: Goal Madrid! It's a formality at this point and Marco Asensio puts the game away in transition with Eduardo Camavinga putting him through. First it was for Espanyol's Sergi Gomez who took a knock and looked to be bleeding. Needing only a point from the match, Madrid started several reserve players, but still managed the convincing victory. Brazilian winger Rodrygo was the star of the show, staking Madrid out to a comfortable lead with two first-half goals.

Despite his contributions since joining from Tottenham in 2013-14, Bale has been subjected to his share of criticism in Spain, with the disparaging nickname 'Golfer' infamously applied to a former $105 million player. Bale missed Real Madrid's title celebrations because he was suffering from a back spasm.
