Real Madrid won their 32nd league title when they defeated Athletic Bilbao at San Mames, becoming the first visiting side to win the trophy at the stadium. The Whites have established several new records this season, such as taking 100 points, scoring 121 goals, winning 32 games, earning 20 heavy victories and having a +89 goal difference.
Taking 100 points has made a real impression in Spain and in the rest of Europe, since never before had a champion side from any of the top six league championships in the continent achieved this.
