Real Madrid Clinches La Liga Title as Girona Shocks Barca

Real Madrid clinched the La Liga title on Saturday with a commanding 3-0 victory over Cadiz, coupled with Girona’s stunning 4-2 win against last year’s champions Barcelona. This triumph marked Real Madrid’s 36th Spanish title, a record-extending feat.

Under the guidance of Carlo Ancelotti, Real Madrid strategically secured their win against Cadiz, setting the stage for their championship moment as Barcelona stumbled at Montilivi. Girona’s remarkable triumph not only contributed to Real Madrid’s success but also propelled the Catalan underdogs into their inaugural Champions League qualification.

Brahim Diaz opened the scoring for Madrid in the 51st minute, followed by Jude Bellingham’s goal assisted by Diaz, and Joselu’s decisive tap-in. Speaking to Real Madrid TV, Joselu expressed the team’s dedication and hunger for success, emphasizing the blend of youthful ambition and veteran leadership within the squad.

In preparation for the Champions League semi-final against Bayern Munich, Ancelotti strategically rotated the squad, entrusting captain Nacho Fernandez as the sole starter from the previous fixture. Thibaut Courtois returned to the starting lineup after a nine-month hiatus due to injury, showcasing a stellar performance and securing a clean sheet.

The match also marked a milestone for Madrid midfielder Luka Modric, who became the oldest player to represent the club in La Liga, surpassing a record set by Ferenc Puskas in 1965. Despite a slow start, Madrid’s defensive resilience and occasional attacking threats ensured their dominance, ultimately securing their well-deserved La Liga crown.
