(Updates after Olympiakos win)

ATHENS, April 19 (Reuters) - Olympiakos Piraeus celebrated wrapping up the Super League title with three matches to spare by thrashing visitors Levadiakos 4-0 on Sunday to claim their 42nd championship.

Vitor Pereira's team had already secured their fifth domestic title in a row after title rivals Panathinaikos earlier suffered a shock 2-1 defeat at Panthrakikos.

That result saw Panathinaikos drop to third place on 59 points and meant Olympiakos, who went into the weekend knowing a point would deliver the title, moved 10 points clear of second-placed PAOK Salonica before their match with Levadiakos.
