Real Madrid secured their 35th La Liga title on Saturday with four rounds of action remaining – their four-goal home win over Espanyol meant no side could catch them.
The celebrations went long into the evening in the Spanish capital as the players and management of Los Blancos savoured the triumph with their fanbase. This was the first time they had lifted the trophy at the Santiago Bernabeu stadium since 2007 and sparked wild celebrations across Madrid.
The team’s open-top bus celebrations left their stadium with the trophy to parade in front of their fans along the streets and culminating in their arrival at the Plaza de Cibeles in the city. It was the club’s second league trophy in three years to help cement the power swing back to the club and away from Barcelona.
