The top division in Spain needed the final day of the season to be decided, but a win by Barcelona gave the Catalans their 24th league title. Barca have led La Liga for the majority of the season, aided by an unbeaten run that lasted for over 30 games. But a late slip kept the door open for both Atletico and Real Madrid, who looked worthy title contenders and will meet in the Champions League final.
Atletico was within range until last weekend, when they lost 2-1 to relegated Levante. They trail by three points, but Real Madrid remained a threat until the end. With 11 straight wins heading into the final day, Real finished one point behind Barcelona to end the season.
Barcelona’s final match is against Granada, who have nothing to play for after escaping relegation. Atletico’s low-scoring affairs got them into trouble but that didn’t for the Catalans, who outscored their last five opponents 23-0.
Here’s a final look at the top three:
1. Barcelona
Points: 91
Last 10 Matches: 9-1-1
Worth Mentioning: Despite coming up short in Champions League, Barcelona can still win a Spanish double for the second consecutive year. Winning in their final match would give the club their third title in four years, and they still have a meeting with Sevilla next week in the Copa del Rey final.
2. Real Madrid
Points: 90
Last 10 Matches: 10-0-0
Worth Mentioning: Zinedine Zidane’s first match as Madrid manager was against Deportivo, and now they play again with an outside shot at the title. Madrid have won 16 of 19 league fixtures under Zidane, scoring 61 goals and conceding only 19.
3. Atletico Madrid
Points: 88
Last 10 Matches: 9-0-1
Worth Mentioning: It’s a disappointing finish for Atletico, who are the only team of the three to finish the season at home. Atletico will now party in their final match, looking ahead to the Champions League final in two weeks.
