It was the last day of the season, Real Madrid had wrapped up the La Liga season in what was a convincing manner. The 4-1 win against Mallorca meant that Real Madrid set up a new scoring record in Spanish Football, scoring a record-breaking 121 goals in a season.

Jose Mourinho's men made sure that Pep Guardiola in his last season at Barcelona didn't get his hands on a fourth consecutive La Liga title. With an inform attacking quartet of Cristiano Ronaldo, Mesut Ozil, Angel Di Maria and Gonzalo Higuain/Karim Benzema meant that Real were relentless in their pursuit of the La Liga title, creating and scoring almost at will.

Racking up 16 away wins for a season another Spanish football record on their way to a 32nd La Liga title. Those 16 wins away from home meant that Jose Mourinho's men had 50 points away from home another special record that remains impressive in the modern game.

One of the better Real Madrid sides to win the league in recent memory, something that Jose Mourinho remains bullish about and remains quick to remind everyone about when poked about his defensive nature.

A century of points and sixteen away wins remain a benchmark in the Spanish League, something that hasn't been bettered yet and would take some getting if any team were to get even close to it.
