Real Madrid’s LaLiga title bid falls short as Atletico Madrid beat Real Valladolid to claim the crown despite beating Villareal 2-1.
Los Blancos were up against it this afternoon, needing their rivals to slip up. Villarreal stunned Zinedine Zidane’s men by taking the lead through Yeremi Pino.
The home side responded in 87th minute through Karim Benzema’s stunning effort. The Frenchman then provided as assist for Luka Modric to snatch the three points in stoppage time.
However, Madrid miss out on the title by two points and end the campaign without silverware. Villarreal will turn their attention to the Europa League final next week to attempt to earn a Champions League place.
