Real Madrid are La Liga champions and BBC Sport examines the story of their success this season.

It has been an impressively dominant campaign for Carlo Ancelotti's men, who have lost just once all season – at local rivals Atletico Madrid in September – and are unbeaten in their last 28 league games.

Bellingham's stature as one of the best players in the world has clearly been enhanced by his superb season, and it is now taken for granted in Spain that he is the leading candidate for this year’s Ballon d’Or. That has helped make Real the leading scorers in La Liga with 74, and allowed Ancelotti to regularly shuffle his pack and keep his stars fresh without a significant drop-off in productivity.At the other end of the field, an impressive aspect of Real's success is that it has been achieved despite long-term injuries to goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and starting central defenders David Alaba and Eder Militao.

Antonio Rudiger has also enjoyed an outstanding campaign, bouncing back from an indifferent first season at the Bernabeu to display all the ferocious competitive spirit that made him so popular with Chelsea fans. At the other end of the age scale from Bellingham, Luka Modric is now a peripheral presence and may well leave the club at the end of the season. However, the 38-year-old can still be relied upon to deliver top quality when required, such as a memorable 20-yard winner against Sevilla in February.
