Atletico win La Liga title




Atletico Madrid claimed their 10th Spanish league crown on Saturday but first in 18 years afcoming from behind to draw 1-1 away at title rivals Barcelona.
Alexis Sanchez's stunning strike fired Barca into the lead on 33 minutes, but Diego Godin's header four minutes into the second-half was enough to give Atletico the point they needed to become the first side other than Barca and Real Madrid to win La Liga in 10 years.
A point for both sides means that Barca finish the season ahead of third-placed Real Madrid thanks to a better head-to-head record, three points adrift of Atletico.
