Barcelona makes history by defeating Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup Classic.

Barcelona has made history in El Clásico after achieving a resounding 5-2 victory over Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup.

The fierce rivals met in Saudi Arabia in a clash that did not disappoint as Hansi Flick’s team played their rivals off the field.

It is the second time this season that Barcelona has achieved a one-sided victory over Los Blancos, after winning 4-0 at the Bernabéu in October.

It means that Barcelona have scored at least four goals in consecutive Clásicos for the first time in their history.

Meanwhile, it is the first time it has happened in an El Clásico clash in 62 years since Real Madrid won 5-1 and 4-0 in consecutive Clásicos in 1963.

While it was a memorable night for Barcelona, ​​it was another night to forget for Real Madrid, who have now lost heavily in both El Clásico matches since Kylian Mbappé’s successful arrival over the summer.

While Mbappé struggled in the previous clash at the Bernabeu, it took just five minutes for the French striker to find the back of the net and give Carlo Ancelotti’s team a perfect start in Jeddah.

Unfortunately for him, Los Blancos suffered a tremendous collapse in the first half after conceding four goals to end the game midway through the final.

Those goals came from Lamine Yamal, Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha and Alejandro Balde, who scored in the tenth minute of first-half stoppage time.

Real Madrid wanted to get back into the game after the break, but were 5-1 down just three minutes into the second half when Raphinha found the net again.

Barcelona were then reduced to ten men when former Arsenal star Wojciech Szczesny received a red card for a foul on Mbappe, meaning Hansi Flick’s side had to hold out for more than half an hour to secure victory.

Rodrygo recovered one for Real Madrid and made it 5-2, but Barcelona was able to hold on to the match and win their 15th Super Cup crown.

While Barcelona have beaten Real Madrid twice this season, Ancelotti’s side are still ahead of the Catalan side in LaLiga and have a five-point lead over Barça.

Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​second and third respectively, still have work to do to win the title, with Atlético Madrid currently at the top of the tree.
