Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid were the last two teams standing for the La Liga title race in the last matchday. Atletico Madrid needed a win to guarantee their La Liga win, while Real Madrid needed Atletico Madrid to slip up and win their own game.
Despite conceding early goals, both the teams won the match which meant Atletico Madrid clinched the La Liga 2020-21 title.
Ironically, Barcelona outcast Suarez scored the winning goal As Simeone wins his 2nd La Liga title.
Here are a few Twitter appreciation posts:
The two seasons before Diego Simeone joined Atletico, they finished 9th and 7th.

Barcelona sold Luis Suarez to Atletico and they are now La Liga champions.
Funny how things work π¬ pic.twitter.com/ysJwQW46c8
Imagine signing Luis Suarez for free from a title contender. Imagine he decided to accept lower salary to show everyone heβs not finished or too old. Imagine winning La Liga thanks to this incredible striker.
