Sports Desk, Jan 12 (EFE).-

Barcelona had a dream final, defeating Real Madrid (2-5) and winning their first title in two years, scoring four first-half goals to settle a wild game despite being reduced to 10 men after Wojciech Szczesny’s dismissal in the Spanish Super Cup final on Sunday.

Hansi Flick’s men overcame Mbappé’s early goal to make it 5-1 after just over 45 minutes, sealing a victory that left their rivals in the doldrums.

After Mbappé’s goal, Lamine Yamal equalized the game for Barcelona in the minute 22 before striker Robert Lewandowski gave his team the lead in the minute 36.

Raphinha then added a third for Barcelona, and Alejandro Balde made it four.

As of the second half, Rodrygo gave hope to the Madrid side, yet Raphinha overshadowed his efforts with a fifth goal. EFE dgp
