Atletico Madrid crashed out of the Liga title race with one game remaining after losing 2-1 to Levante.
Atletico took the lead at Levante in the first minute through Fernando Torres, but the relegated home side fought back, equalising through Victor Casadesus before Giuseppe Rossi grabbed the winner in stoppage time.
With Barcelona winning 5-0 against Espanyol, the Catalans have a three-point advantage over Diego Simeone's men and with a superior head-to-head record they cannot be caught.
Barca top the standings on 88 points, Real moved into second on 87 and Atletico have 85 with one game remaining.
