No David Beckham, no Fabio Capello, no Roberto Carlos. No matter. Real
Madrid won its record 31st Spanish league title Sunday night credit goes to the late heroics of newer accompaniments who led the Spanish champions to a come-from-behind 2-1 victory at Osasuna.
Madrid was reduced to 10 in the 46th following Fabio Cannavaro's ejection.
Substitute Gonzalo Higuain volleyed in the winner in the 89th minute, two minutes after Arjen Robben headed in the equalizer with 10-men Madrid trailing through Francisco Punal's 83rd-minute penalty. Higuain chested down Sergio Ramos' short pass to volley home from the right after former Chelsea winger Robben headed in a cross from Fernando Gago from the left to equalize.
The defending champions now have 78 points - 10 more than second-place Villarreal - and can't be caught with three games remaining, making Wednesday's match against bitter rival FC Barcelona meaningless.
No David Beckham, no Fabio Capello, no Roberto Carlos. No matter. Real
