In a thrilling Spanish Super Cup final at King Abdullah Sports City, Barcelona emerged as champions, defeating Real Madrid 3-2 in a dramatic encounter. The match was a rollercoaster of emotions, with late drama and crucial moments that kept fans on the edge of their seats throughout.
The first half started with Barcelona dominating possession, controlling 75% of the ball, but they struggled to break down Real Madrid’s defense. Barcelona had a few chances early on, with Raphinha coming close in the 34th minute, but his shot went wide. Real Madrid looked dangerous on the counter, with Vinicius Jr. testing Barcelona goalkeeper Garcia in the 14th minute.
Barcelona finally broke the deadlock in the 36th minute when Raphinha scored a well-taken goal from inside the box, putting the Catalans 1-0 ahead. However, Real Madrid responded immediately, equalizing in the 43rd minute through Gonzalo after a frantic defensive scramble from Barcelona. Just before the break, Vinicius Jr. produced a moment of brilliance, dribbling past several defenders to slot the ball into the bottom corner, giving Madrid a 2-1 lead going into halftime.
The second half saw a more open game, with both sides creating chances. Barcelona equalized in the 55th minute, when Lewandowski's cross was turned in by Raphinha, whose shot deflected into the net off a Madrid defender, making it 2-2. As the game intensified, tempers flared, with three yellow cards shown in quick succession.
In the final stages, Barcelona's defense held firm despite Real Madrid's pressing, and with minutes remaining, Raphinha found the net again in the 73rd minute. His deflected shot from inside the box took a lucky bounce and went in, giving Barcelona a 3-2 lead. Real Madrid pushed for a late equalizer, but a red card to De Jong in the final minutes left Barcelona to hold on with 10 men.
With a thrilling finish, Barcelona lifted the Super Cup for a record-extending 16th time, thanks to Raphinha's heroics and their resilience under pressure. Real Madrid, despite their best efforts, could not find the equalizer in the final moments, and Barcelona emerged victorious in a captivating contest.
