The defeat of the Barça team against Girona gave the title to the meringues, who are leaders with 87 points, 13 points behind Girona, second, and 14 behind Barça, which dropped to third place.
The team from the capital fulfilled its role by beating Cádiz in a match in which it accelerated in the second half, after being unable to overcome the firm Andalusian defense in the first half.
Brahim Díaz put Real Mdrid ahead with a goal from the top corner (51), which marked the change of direction in the match.
The meringues soon put more ground in the way when Bellingham finished off a pass from Brahim (68) and Joselu closed the account at the bell with a shot almost below the goal (90+4).
The white victory fulfilled the first requirement for the title, but the second was missing, which came when Barça lost 4-2 at Girona.

Girona’s victory guaranteed them playing in the Champions League next season for the first time in their history and in the process gave the Spanish League to Real Madrid.
The meringues join this title to the Spanish Super Cup, which they already won in January in Saudi Arabia against Barcelona, but their haul of trophies this season can still increase in the coming days if they successfully finish their career in the Champions League.
A 15th orejona would be the best ending to the season for a team that has dominated the championship in Spain.
The Madridistas have not fallen off the top of the League podium since matchday 18, after briefly alternating in the first rounds with Girona, the revelation team of the campaign.
In 34 games, the whites have won 27, drawn 6 and lost only one against Atlético de Madrid 3-1 on September 29 in the 6th round at the Metropolitano.
Carlo Ancelotti’s team has relied on its great offensive power with 74 goals in the championship, almost half of them scored by Jude Bellingham and Vinicius.
The Englishman is the merengue team’s top scorer with 18 goals in the championship, although his performance dropped in the latter part of the season.
Real Madrid is the highest scoring team in the Spanish competition, but its dominance has been largely based on its defensive strength. The White House has only conceded 22 goals, eleven less than the next best defense in the championship, Athletic Bilbao.
Barça’s irregularity during the season and the decline experienced by Girona in the final third have helped the white team, which has hardly had any ups or downs during the season.
