Barcelona delivered a jaw-dropping performance against rivals Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final, rallying from an early deficit to claim a 5-2 victory 🎉. Despite conceding a lightning-fast goal to Kylian Mbappé (⚡), Barça flipped the script with FOUR first-half goals, showcasing the kind of football drama that makes #ElClasico legendary.
First-Half Fireworks 🔥
Teen sensation Lamine Yamal (16!) kickstarted the comeback in the 22nd minute, followed by Robert Lewandowski’s penalty, Raphinha’s rocket header, and Alejandro Balde’s stoppage-time strike. Real Madrid’s defense? More like a 🚪 revolving door.
Coaches Sound Off 🎙️
Barcelona’s new coach Hansi Flick called it a 'masterclass in exploiting mistakes,' while Real’s Carlo Ancelotti roasted his team’s first-half performance: 'That wasn’t football.' Ouch.
Red Card Drama & Redemption ❌
Barca’s keeper Wojciech Szczęsny got ejected in the 56th minute, but replacement Iñaki Peña saved a late Mbappé shot to seal the win. The victory snaps Barça’s 14-month trophy drought and extends their Super Cup record to 15 🏆.
With this win, Barcelona sends a message: Don’t count them out yet. Real Madrid, meanwhile, will need to regroup before their next LaLiga clash. Let the rivalry continue! 💥
