Cristiano Ronaldo grabbed his 54th goal of the season as Real Madrid moved closer to a 32nd La Liga title with a 2-1 win at Barcelona for whom Lionel Messi was reduced to a bit-part role. “It was an important goal but the win for the team is more important,” said Ronaldo, who later tweeted: “Mission accomplished”.
