A new LaLiga season ends, leaving Real Madrid as champions, reaching 36 league titles and an almost perfect campaign after losing only one game.\u00a0
The Casa Blanca had moments where it disputed the title with Barcelona and the surprising Girona, but it\u00a0was a machine and always returned to sit at the top with a\u00a0wide\u00a0advantage.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
95\u00a0points after 29 wins, eight draws, and only one loss against Atl\u00e9tico Madrid in September.\u00a0Those were the numbers of the champion, which was also the team with the most goals scored (87) and the fewest conceded (26).\u00a0<\/strong> The big surprise of the season was undoubtedly Girona. The Catalan team finished third and achieved a historic qualification to the Champions League. In the first matchday, they were 10th; in the second, they were 4th, and then they did not get out of the top 3. Aleix Garc\u00eda, S\u00e1vio, Viktor Tsygankov, Yan Couto, Yangel Herrera, Cristhian Stuani, and Paulo Gazzaniga played a remarkable role, but Artem Dovbyk deserves a separate chapter.\u00a0 Real Madrid, Barcelona, Girona, and Atl\u00e9tico Madrid will play in the next Champions League. However, the Gironins could be left out due to a shareholder issue, as the team is part of the City Group, which also owns Manchester City, and UEFA\u00a0does not allow two teams from the same business group to play in the competition.\u00a0 When and where?\u00a0<\/strong> When and where?\u00a0<\/strong> When and where?\u00a0<\/strong> When and where?\u00a0<\/strong> A new LaLiga season ends, leaving Real Madrid as champions, reaching 36 league titles and an almost perfect campaign after losing only one game.\u00a0 The Casa Blanca had moments where it disputed the title with Barcelona and the surprising Girona, but it\u00a0was a machine and always returned to sit at the top with a\u00a0wide\u00a0advantage.\u00a0 Real […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":28693,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":"","_wpscp_schedule_draft_date":"","_wpscp_schedule_republish_date":"","_wpscppro_advance_schedule":false,"_wpscppro_advance_schedule_date":"","_wpscppro_dont_share_socialmedia":false,"_wpscppro_custom_social_share_image":0,"_facebook_share_type":"","_twitter_share_type":"","_linkedin_share_type":"","_pinterest_share_type":"","_linkedin_share_type_page":"","_instagram_share_type":"","_medium_share_type":"","_threads_share_type":"","_google_business_share_type":"","_selected_social_profile":[],"_wpsp_enable_custom_social_template":false,"_wpsp_social_scheduling":{"enabled":false,"datetime":null,"platforms":[],"status":"template_only","dateOption":"today","timeOption":"now","customDays":"","customHours":"","customDate":"","customTime":"","schedulingType":"absolute"},"_wpsp_active_default_template":true},"categories":[98,90,788],"tags":[857,171],"class_list":["post-30113","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-betting","category-football","category-laliga","tag-results","tag-soccer"],"aioseo_notices":[],"modified_by":"Erwin Noguera","aioseo_head":"\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t
From start to finish, it was the best,\u00a0being\u00a029 matchdays in first place, eight in second, and one in third. That is to say, they spend the whole championship in the top 3. They were crowned champions four games early and slowed down in the last matches, tying with Villarreal and Betis.\u00a0<\/strong>
In addition, the Merengues are in the Champions League final, which they will play next June 1 against Borussia Dortmund\u00a0looking\u00a0to close a great season.\u00a0
Undoubtedly, the White team had many high points, but the biggest one was Jude Bellingham. The Englishman arrived this season after three years at Dortmund\u00a0and,\u00a0although\u00a0his talent was known,\u00a0his level was not expected\u00a0to be so high.\u00a0<\/strong>
With 19 goals and six assists, the 20-year-old midfielder was the team’s top scorer and Real Madrid’s most decisive player in the campaign, taking on a driving role that no one thought.\u00a0
In addition to Bellingham, Andriy Lunin should also\u00a0be highlighted. The Ukrainian was Thibaut Courtois’ substitute, but\u00a0once the Belgian was seriously injured, the club brought Kepa Arrizabalaga to be the starter. The Spaniard didn’t measure up and was\u00a0also\u00a0injured, so the responsibility fell on Lunin, who emerged as a surprise starter.\u00a0
We cannot overlook Vinicius, who is playing better and better but is always in the eye of the storm for his attitudes on the pitch and provocations to rival fans, leading to reprehensible acts of racism.\u00a0
Another pleasant surprise was Joselu, who, after playing a couple of games in the 2010-11 and 2011-12 seasons, returned to Real Madrid\u00a0and was\u00a0a great substitute and important scorer, appearing when\u00a0he was most needed.\u00a0
This Madrid will be remembered\u00a0for being a team that battled injuries and improvised many times with players in other positions\u00a0and thus\u00a0managed to have the great season it did.\u00a0
Finally, it’s notable that Toni Kroos, one of the best midfielders in recent years, will retire in a few weeks when the European Championship\u00a0is over.\u00a0The German arrived in 2014 at Real Madrid and leaves\u00a010\u00a0years later with 22 titles, among which there are four leagues and\u00a0with\u00a0the possibility of achieving six Champions Leagues.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nSurprises and Disappointments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The Ukrainian striker scored 24 goals and was the top scorer of the tournament, beating Norway’s Alexander Sorloth (23), Poland’s Robert Lewandowski (19) and Bellingham (19).\u00a0But he also provided eight assists, proving that he\u00a0not only inflated the net but also\u00a0got his teammates to play.<\/strong>
On the other hand, we have Sevilla, who always fought to play in international tournaments, but this\u00a0time, they fought to avoid relegation. It was always in the lower positions despite having top players like Sergio Ramos, Lucas Ocampos, or Youssef En-Nesyri.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nEuropean competitions and relegations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The Basque Country will be represented in the Europa League, as Athletic Bilbao and Real Sociedad will be there. Meanwhile, Real Betis will go to the Conference League.\u00a0
On the relegation places, Granada and Almeria packed their bags long ago for the second division, while\u00a0Cadiz joined them in the last few weeks of this LaLiga season.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\nLaLiga Matchday 38:\u00a0Girona 7-0 Granada<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Girona closed their best season ever with the best result they have ever achieved.\u00a0It was a crushing 7-0 victory over Granada with a hat-trick by Artem Dovbyk, which made him the Pichichi of Spanish soccer.\u00a0<\/strong>
Eric Garc\u00eda with a header, Tsygankov with a shot inside the penalty area, and Dovbyk with a penalty scored the goals in the first half. In the second part, Tsygankov repeated the formula, Stuani was present, and Dovbyk appeared again with a cross and a penalty.\u00a0

In a match with few emotions and nothing at stake,\u00a0Real Madrid and Real Betis played to a goalless draw at the Santiago Bernab\u00e9u.
The\u00a0highlight of the game was the retirement of Toni Kross, who said goodbye to his home in the last ten years by playing his penultimate game with the white jersey, as in a few days, he will be in the Champions League final.
On the Andalusian side, they already have three consecutive draws against this\u00a0rival,\u00a0and\u00a0close the campaign with 57 points and the qualification to the Conference League.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nLaLiga Matchday 38:\u00a0Sevilla 1-2 Barcelona<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After several comings and goings, Xavi leaves Barcelona, and he leaves with a 1-2 victory over Sevilla.\u00a0
It was the last game of the season, and the winner was the Catalan team that, despite achieving the runner-up position, never achieved the expected\u00a0level of performance\u00a0and\u00a0that\u00a0is why their coach is leaving.
Robert Lewandowski made it 0-1 with an acrobatic finish after a cross from Joao Cancelo, but Youssef\u00a0En-Nesyri put the transitional equalizer with a shot between Ter Stegen’s legs.\u00a0
In the second half, young Ferm\u00edn L\u00f3pez, one of the team’s revelations along with Yamal and Cubarsi, gave the Cul\u00e9s the victory with a shot from outside the area.\u00a0
It was the end of a\u00a0bad\u00a0chapter for both teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
