In Saudi Arabia, in Jeddah, FC Barcelona and Real Madrid were on display for the final of the Spanish Super Cup, during the second Clasico of the season, this Sunday evening.
The opportunity for Kylian Mbappé to shine. Real Madrid also opened the scoring on its first opportunity on the counterattack. Launched on the right, the Bondynois crossed his attempt with his right foot in the Barça area. 1-0. A short-lived joy for the Merengue. Thus, in the 22nd minute, Lamine Yamal responded to Mbappé. The young Spaniard achieved a personal feat to revive Barça.
And restart, Barça was. Robert Lewandowski equalized flat with his right foot from the penalty spot. Raphinha, on a long cross from Jules Koundé, increased the score before Baldé made it 4-1 with a cross shot from the left, just before the break. After the break, Raphinha joined the party with a new goal. Rodrygo would reduce the score for the Merengue on the hour mark, taking advantage of the exclusion of the Barcelona goalkeeper after a foul on Mbappé, but the Remontada was not going to take place. 5-2, final score, Barça clearly wins.
