La Liga: Real Madrid see off Barcelona to win first title in five years

Real Madrid on Sunday, defeated Malaga 2-0 to win the 2016/2017 La Liga title.

Cristiano Ronaldo opened scoring as early as the second minute of the encounter, before Karim Benzema added the second 10 minutes after the break.

It is Madrid’s first league crown in five years.

Zinedine Zidane’s men had to wait until the final round of fixtures to be confirmed winners, as Barcelona ran them close up till the end.

Although the Catalans came from behind to defeat Eibar 4-2 at the Nou Camp, they could only finish second, failing to defend the title they won last year.

Zidane will be hoping to complete the double, when his side takes on Juventus in the Champions League final on June 3 in Cardiff.
