The McCanns 'won' the 'libel' trial (partly). Amaral 'lost' the 'libel' trial (partly). As a result they get all his money plus interest. He didn't libel them though, apparently he 'damaged' them by writing his book when he did and by his conclusions in the book. They were 'damaged' already but he made it worse. He didn't damage the search for their daughter and he didn't damage any of the children.
The McCanns were 'delighted' with the verdict. They told Sky News;
"We want to emphasise that the action was never about money. It has always been focused on the effects of the libels on our other children and the damage that was done to the search for Madeleine," they said in a statement.

They achieved the complete ruin of Amaral however, and had the book banned (again), so a good result. Or was it? Even Sky, the Mccann's friend, printed a picture in the above article of police digging up Praia da Luz, rather than, say, an age-progressed picture of Madeleine.
People have donated £ 10,000 in seven days to Amaral's legal defence because of their anger at being labeled as 'trolls' and because they think that Amaral has been victimised by the actions of a couple who say it's not about money but appear to spend most of their energies gathering it.
