Malaga CF v Real Madrid CF - La Liga
It took the Portuguese just 2 minutes to put Madrid ahead in a match that ensured Los Blancos won the La Liga

Once again, Cristiano Ronaldo was the hero for Real Madrid firing Los Blancos on the way to their first La Liga title in 5 years. There was intense competition from Barcelona towards the end of the season which meant that there was no room for slip-ups.

But Madrid faced a difficult task, playing against a stubborn Malaga side for the final match of the La Liga campaign. The match was heavily anticipated as Barca fans tipped Malaga to cause an upset.

However, it took Cristiano Ronaldo just 2 minutes to put Real Madrid ahead with a vital goal at the La Rosaleda stadium after capitalising on a mistake from the Malaga defence. Karim Benzema's goal later in the match ensured that Real Madrid was crowned Champions as Ronaldo led the team to their first La Liga title in 5 years.
