'Who will join me to party tonight?' – Adepoju revels in Real Madrid’s LaLiga success

Mutiu Adepoju is among those revelling in LaLiga success of Real Madrid after Thursday’s 2-1 defeat of Villarreal on Thursday.

Karim Benzema scored a goal in each half as Los Blancos clinched a 34th Spanish elite division title at the expense of Barcelona that bowed 2-1 at home to Osasuna.

The Frenchman opened the scoring after 29 minutes as Casemiro picked off Sofian Chakla’s pass and Luka Modric laid into the path of Benzema who scored through the legs of Sergio Asenjo.

Zinedine Zidane’s men were gifted a chance to double the lead when Los Blancos were awarded a penalty by referee Alejandro Hernandez after Chakla clipped Sergio Ramos who whizzed forward.
