Carlo Ancelotti led Real Madrid on Saturday evening to their 35th La Liga title with four games to spare in the 2021-2022 campaign for the first time after 32 years following their 4-0 win against a hapless Espanyol at the Santiago Bernabeu.

The title triumph means that Ancelotti has won all domestic competitions in Europe’s five major leagues namely Spain, England, Italy, Germany and France.
