Barcelona champions, Málaga survive

Barcelona are champions for the second consecutive season after beating Valladolid 4-0 and Málaga remain in La Liga following a 1-1 draw at home to Real Madrid.

Lionel Messi scored two goals and was instrumental in a third as Barcelona eventually ran out comfortable winners against Valladolid to claim their second league title in a row. Messi ends the season with 34 goals to his name.

A great start for the Blue and Whites in their desperate attempt to remain in the top flight, Duda giving them the lead after just nine minutes. And Málaga held on to that lead until the start of the second half when van der Vaart equalised for Real Madrid.

Valencia and Sevilla finished third and fourth to secure Champions League football next season and Mallorca and Getafe finished fifth and sixth, qualifying for the Europa League.
