Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane was able to celebrate after the 2-0 win in Malaga which gave his side the 33rd league title in their history, but the first since 2012.

Goals from Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema gave Madrid the victory against a tough Malaga outfit.

"We are very happy," said Zidane after the game. "After 38 weeks, we have got here and we have managed to win on of the best leagues in the world."

"There is nothing better as a coach and professionally it is the happiest day of my life. We may win more things, but it is the happies day for me," continued the Madrid boss, who had praise for his squad.

"The players deserved it and although all of us suffer, they are the ones who run and who suffer. They have all been important and the team as a unit is the key to our success," he said.

Real Madrid will play against Juventus in the Champions League final on June 3rd, but ending a spell which has seen Barcelona win three titles and Atletico Madrid another, was vital for Zidane.

"The League is your day to day and it is very important when you win it and even more so for Madrid," commented Zidane.
