      <title>Madrid fans see off Kroos in Betis draw</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330362362/madrid-fans-see-off-kroos-in-betis-draw</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Real Madrid supporters bade farewell to midfielder Toni Kroos in his final La Liga game for the club at the Santiago Bernabeu on Saturday, a 0-0 draw against Real Betis.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Spanish champions have one match remaining this season – the Champions League final on June 1 against Borussia Dortmund at Wembley.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“It’s not easy, I can only say thanks to Madrid, the club, my team-mates, to the stadium, I’ve always felt at home here in these 10 years, I can’t ask for more, they’ve been 10 unforgettable years,” said Germany international Kroos, 34, who is retiring after Euro 2024.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Spanish champions’ draw with Betis was a forgettable affair to see out what has been a triumphant campaign.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Carlo Ancelotti selected a strong side, his likely starting-line up next week in London, but with nothing at stake beyond potential injury risk, they did not push themselves.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Madrid finish the season with only one league defeat and were unbeaten at the Bernabeu.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Earlier, Atletico Madrid, fourth, finished their campaign with a 2-0 win at Real Sociedad and Athletic Bilbao beat Rayo Vallecano 1-0.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Relegated Almeria, who went much of the season without a single victory, earned only their third win to move off the bottom of the table, thrashing Cadiz 6-1, to leave Granada 20th.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Villarreal striker Alexander Sorloth limped off injured in his team’s 1-1 draw against Osasuna, leaving the golden boot in the hands of Girona striker Artem Dovbyk, who scored a hat-trick on Friday to move to 24 goals, one ahead of the Norwegian.&lt;/p&gt;
