Vigo's city mayor Abel Cabellero had previously described Real Madrid's attempt to apply pressure for the February clash between Celta and Real Madrid as "arrogant", amid serious safety concerns for spectators and staff.

"We still have one game to go".

"We knew that the three points were the most important thing, but we went out there to play, the win was only a effect".

And the Portugal star gave coach Zidane the thumbs up for his effective management of a squad which he believes has a good blend of youth and experience. "I am good, everything will be decided in the final matchdays, and I am doing it well, scoring goals and helping the team", he said.

The Frenchman's rotation policy was criticised early in the season after four straight draws but has paid off with Real hitting their peak in the final run-in, having also reached the Champions League final in June against Juventus.

Man of the moment, Cristiano Ronaldo scored the first goal in the 10th minute after a bad clearance from Celta Vigo left back Johny in which the hosts' goalie Sergio Alvarez was left helpless. "He has put in a massive shift and worked really hard defensively too", he said.

"He'll be with us tomorrow", Zidane confirmed.

Just after half-time Celta had their best chance to get back into the game, but John Guidetti's control let him down 8 yards out.

Malaga vs Real Madrid will be broadcast live on Sky Sports 3 at 6.55pm on Sunday, May 21. "We know it will be a hard game, but we are going to try and play at 100 percent to win it".

And, after Ronaldo's brace in a 4-1 win over Celta Vigo saw the club with one hand on the Primera Division trophy, Isco sang his praises.

Here, Press Association Sport looks at the numbers behind Ronaldo's remarkable feat.

"It's hard [for us] because they are a good team".

"It is very easy to build up an understanding with Cristiano", Isco told the club's website after Wednesday's victory over Celta, in which Karim Benzema and Toni Kroos also scored.

Zidane urged his team to continue pushing ahead of their trip to the Estadio La Rosaleda.

In case you didn't know.

. "I expect to face the same Celta team as always".
