Real Madrid thrashed Espanyol 4-0 to win a 35th La Liga title. Playing their 34th league game this season, Real sealed the deal with four games to spare. Also, Carlo Ancelotti has become the first manager to win the league in all five of Europe's major leagues. Notably, Los Blancos are 17 points clear of second-placed Sevilla. Here are the key records scripted.

Match
Real down Espanyol 4-0

Rodrygo gave Real the lead in the 33rd minute after adding a second 10 minutes later after robbing Sergi Gomez of possession on the edge of the penalty area. Marco Asensio prevailed in a rapid counter-attack before veteran Benzema came off the bench to add the fourth from Vinicius Junior's cutback. Notably, Real scored four goals from five on target.

Context
Why does this story matter?
  • This was a special season for Real under Ancelotti, who returned as manager in what is a second spell here.
  • Throughout the season, Real dominated the scenes and kept things under control.
  • Karim Benzema has been exceptional and will want to finish on a high.
  • Real were also strong defensively and bossed the mid-field.
  • A 35th league crown will please Los Blancos.
