Real Madrid’s 8-game winning streak locks the league title

The last game of the 35th round of La Liga ended this morning. Real Madrid defeated the underdog Alaves 2-0 without any suspense. After the restart of La Liga, they won all 8 rounds and continued to lead by 4 points. After winning this game, Real Madrid basically locked the La Liga title this season. With the remaining 3 rounds of the league, they have no pressure, and Granada, Villarreal and Leganes are completely unable to pose a threat to them. The 34th La Liga championship trophy in team history has arrived.

In this game, Ramos was suspended and rested. The captain Benzema made the fourth penalty kick of the season. The 18 goals in La Liga ranked second only to Messi. After that, Asensio also scored another goal with the assist of Benzema. Real Madrid won easily, and they have not conceded a goal in the past 5 league rounds, and their state is extremely stable. The suspension of Ramos this round is not a bad thing. Without him, Real Madrid still did not concede a goal. Benzema is also very stable in penalty kicks. Taking the opportunity to take a break is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Real Madrid not only made no mistakes, but also became the only team to win all of the five major leagues after the rematch (Juventus did not win in the Coppa Italia). Behind the 8-game winning streak and Barcelona’s continuous mistakes at critical moments, the suspense of the La Liga championship has completely disappeared after this game. In the last three rounds, even if Barcelona wins, it will be difficult to overtake Real Madrid. Because Real Madrid not only gave themselves the chance to make mistakes (of course, the possibility is very small), the remaining opponents took down Granada and Leganes with little effort.

Theoretically, Real Madrid will be able to win the La Liga title this season as soon as possible in the next round, provided that Barcelona does not win the next round. If Barcelona is invincible in the next round, as long as Real Madrid beat Granada, they will win the championship two rounds ahead of schedule. In the case that the Champions League draw has been announced, Real Madrid will lock the league title earlier, which will help Zidane to lay out the Champions League early. After all, their opponent Juventus has 4 more league games remaining. Winning the championship ahead of time has far-reaching significance for Zidane and Real Madrid.

Looking at the overall state, 8 consecutive victories, 6 clean sheets in 8 games, although the number of goals scored in recent games is relatively small, but Zidane’s football philosophy can be clearly seen. Steady defense ensures less mistakes, which is the most notable feature of Real Madrid at the moment. After winning back the league title from Barcelona after two seasons, Zidane’s ultimate goal is naturally the Champions League. This is another challenging and interesting season
