Real Madrid win LaLiga 23/24: 36th league title for Los Blancos

Real Madrid have been crowned LaLiga champions after their 3-0 win over Cadiz, mathematically ensuring they will win the title for a 36th time. Now, the Spanish champions have the chance to do the double under Carlo Ancelotti again, with a spot in the semifinals of the Champions League.

Ancelotti himself has won his sixth league title in his career, and second LaLiga title. Considering all the obstacles against the Italian manager, it’s remarkable how he has motivated his team to overcome the odds and still emerge as champions.

Madrid’s defence was crippled by the ACL injuries to Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao and David Alaba. Although they signed Kepa Arrizabalaga on loan, it was Andriy Lunin who stepped up to become the first choice in Courtois’ absence.

Jude Bellingham’s signing was the big revelation, helping Vinicius Jr and Rodrygo share the goalscoring burden. And now, the midfielder is among the top scorers in the league.

Madrid’s LaLiga win has proven Ancelotti’s capabilities as a man-manager, helping turn a team like Real Madrid into a cohesive unit. Although they might not be the most advanced tactically, they have been effective. And that is all that matters in the end.

Now, they will turn their attention to the second leg of the UCL semifinal against Bayern Munich, where they are tied 2-2.
