Barcelona started 2025 by crushing their traditional rival Real Madrid 5-2 in the Spanish Super Cup final in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

The Catalan team overcame Real's early lead by Mbappe in the 5th minute, with Lamine Yamal equalizing in the 22nd minute through a precise shot after a remarkable pass from Lewandowski.

Barcelona exploded in the first half, scoring three consecutive goals through:

Lewandowski (penalty kick)

Raphinha (powerful header)

Balde (quick counterattack)

Raphinha completed Barcelona's goal festival by scoring the fifth goal early in the second half, utilizing a precise pass from Gavi.

The match saw additional drama with Barcelona's goalkeeper Szczesny being sent off in the 56th minute for blocking Mbappe, forcing coach Flick to substitute goalkeeper Pena for Gavi.

Rodrygo added Real Madrid's second goal from a direct free kick, but Ancelotti's team failed to capitalize on their numerical advantage.

Barcelona enhanced their record as the most trophy-winning team with 15 titles, surpassing Real Madrid's 13.

Both teams now have two titles in Saudi Arabia, with Real winning in 2022 and 2024, and Barcelona in 2023 and 2025.
