Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atlético in LaLiga title race

With all three title contenders looking to get an advantage on their rivals before the final day of the season, we look back on how everything unfolded in photos.

Min 0 | Atlético manager Simeone gets comfy to watch his boys from afar. No signs of any earpieces.
Min 0 | Derby managers embrace before the game at the Camp Nou.
Min 0 | Zinedine Zidane heads to the dugout hoping for another comfortable home win at the Bernabeu.
Min 1 | Forget getting a foothold in the game. Atletico forward Fernando Torres takes no time in getting his team in front. Actually he took 1 minute.
Min 7 | Barça get going early too and Messi picks out the postage stamp for a beautiful, curling free-kick.
Min 25 | After an unconvincing start, Cristiano settles some nerves at the Bernabeu with a lovely strike from the edge of the area. Cue celebration.
Min 29 | Oh no. Levante haven't read today's script and Víctor hits a sweet equaliser. Plenty time for Leti to score again though.
Min 41 | Benzema adds to Cristiano's opener and gives breathing room for Los Blancos.
Min 45 | No amount of rain is going to get in the way of fans and their social media habits.
Min 51 | Suarez knocks the ball neatly past Pau Lopez in the Espanyol goal to put the champions elect two ahead.
Min 54 | Rodrigo lets rip at the Bernabeu...it looks on target...
Min 54 | ...yes! Even a diving Marcelo can't stop it finding the net. Could there be a shock here?
Min 55 | Rodrigo enjoyed that one!
Min 58 | Cristiano gives some much needed calm for the fans with a well taken goal, his second of the game.
Min 60 | Luis Suarez celebrates his second, and Barça's third, goal with a good old fisty pump. Nice tat!
Min 73 | OK. This game is done. Barcelona's Brazilian midfielder Rafinha celebrates after putting his side four up. Will the Madrid sides make it to the final matchday?
Min 80 | Andre Gomes puts Los Che back in with a shout of getting something out of the game and possibly affecting LaLiga outcome. What a stonker of a hit...CR7 just left the field but would have admired that.
Min 82 | Brazilian Neymar is lifted into the air by Suarez after putting away the fifth. The Uruguayan could have chosen to shoot for his hat-trick but instead laid it on a plate for his team-mate.
Min 83 | Red car at the Bernabeu! After looking like they may have been able to get an equaliser, some post-watershed words by Rodrigo were directed towards the official and he reached for his pocket.
Min 89 | What? Just when it was looking like all three of the contenders were going to make it into the final day showdown, little Rossi spoils Atlético's ambitions. He points to the sky.

FT | The players also pay tribute to the departing Spaniard by throwing him up into the air a few times.
