After 10 years, can Alaba still enjoy the title celebrations? Watch his celebration with a chair and other juicy tidbits

Real Madrid hasn’t exactly had a tough time this season, with its main rivals underperforming virtually from the start. Moreover, the White Ballet are still in the running for the Champions League. And that is where they can focus their full attention, thanks to the already certain league title.

Alab’s championship routine

Millions of footballers dream of winning at least once a league title in one of the top 5 European leagues. But Alaba is on a completely different level, as he headed to Real Madrid due to a lack of motivation, but this season hasn’t been much different for him.

The Austrian stopper lifted the championship chair above his head after Saturday’s win over Espanyol, the first time he has won the league trophy for the tenth time in a row (9 times with Bayern Munich, who incidentally had won the title a week earlier).

El Toreador

Real Madrid have won 50 trophies under Florentino Pérez. The 75-year-old matador has led the royal team very hard, showing mercy to practically no one and subordinating everything to the success of the club.

Ancelotti’s samba

Carlo Ancelotti became the first coach to win all the top 5 European leagues. He started this journey with AC Milan (03/04). This was followed by victories with Chelsea (09/10), PSG (12/13), Bayern Munich (16/17) and now with Real Madrid (21/22).

He has won the Champions League a total of three times so far (twice with AC Milan and once with Real Madrid). He only needs to win two more games to win his fourth title. With Karim Benzema on the move, it could be done!

The record 35th Spanish league title win couldn’t have been without a celebration at one of Madrid’s symbols, namely the fountain of the goddess Kybelé

The never-ending struggle between Barcelona and Real Madrid

Apart from Atlético Madrid’s two victories, Barcelona and Real Madrid have celebrated La Liga championships since the 2004/05 season.

These two irreconcilable rivals are naturally teasing each other on social media, where those from the Spanish capital currently have the upper hand.

Barcelona have had a very difficult season, but the return of Xavi has given the Catalan outfit hope for a better tomorrow. Next season may see a much more interesting battle for the Spanish throne.
