The keys to Real Madrid's La Liga title success

The main reason behind Real Madrid's league success is none other than Zinedine Zidane, who managed to arrange and unify the team starting from the dressing room. The French boss used his skills as a former footballer to understand his players, who have seen his manager's side as much as his 'friendly' aspect. The team has always fealt their manager's backing.

'A league is won with a squad of 24 players', he said. And that is what happened. Zidane shared out the minutes throughout the season and up to 20 players have enjoyed over 1000 minutes in a season in which Real could accomplish the 'double' if they overcome Juventus in the final in Cardiff.

Zidane has known how to rest his players with rotations that have seen the team reach the crucial stage of the season as fresh and in-form as ever. Another key factor has been Cristiano Ronaldo, who has been greatly benefitted by Zidane's rotation system. The Portuguese attacker has changed his role at Real Madrid, becoming an out-and-out striker, a massive threat inside the opposition's area. 

The old Ronaldo who would burst down the flanks is history, as he now looks to get on the end of his team's moves to put the ball into the back of the net. A true 'killer'.

The 'Blancos' are only a few matches away from breaking a world record, which is none other than the longest run scoring in consecutive matches, and it is no surprise as Real Madrid are one of the most effective sides in front of goal in recent history. It is hard to remember the last time they failed to score in a fixture, 64 games ago.

A huge difference this season has been on the bench. The famous 'Madrid B' is history as Zidane's less-regulars have become the best secondary team in the competition. Isco, Morata, Nacho, Asensio, Lucas Vazquez or Kovacic have proved they can be called upon when needed.

Togetherness and a great management from the coaching staff have brought success to the Bernabeu.
