He led Madrid to their 33rd title

Real Madrid are the most successful side in La Liga history with 33 title wins since founded in 1906. But in the past decade, they were overshadowed by eternal rivals, Barcelona. Their only La Liga title came in 2011-12 under Mourinho.

Real seemed to falter in the big games while sidestepping past lowly opponents and that was the major reason for their failure. But since Zidane took over, they seemed reborn. He implemented a very successful formation with Casemiro at the base of midfield and two of the best- Kroos and Modric on either side of him.

It worked wonders as they absolutely dominated the league, setting a club record of 16 consecutive wins en route to their 33rd title over the years. The move to trust Casemiro paid off big time as he played a crucial role in the Champions League win against Juventus too.
