With four games remaining, Madrid climbed to 87 points and extended their lead to 14 points over second-placed Barcelona and 16 clear Girona in third.

Real manager Carlo Ancelotti rested several key players ahead of their Champions League semifinal against Bayern Munich and his side did more than enough to secure the three points.

After dominating the first half, they finally managed to break the deadlock with Diaz first netting a curling shot from the edge of the box in the 51st minute.

He then assisted substitute Bellingham to score with a tidy finish from close range in the 68th minute before Joselu tapped into an empty net in a counter attack in added time.
