Barcelona vs Real Madrid
The SuperCopa cup final between Real Madrid and Barcelona in Saudi Arabia.
(The Post News)- Barcelona and Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final are set for later today, Sunday. In a title match, this will be their third consecutive meeting since the new format was introduced.
Real Madrid and Barcelona have advanced to the Spanish Super Cup finals three times in a row. Both will compete in the final in Saudi Arabia, where they are highly regarded by the public, for the third consecutive year.
The Spanish Super Cup can now feature more Clasico matches because to the new structure. In the case that some of the titles are not won, there is a chance of finishing second in the league or the Copa del Rey. Barcelona entered the final in this manner.
Since this is the sixth year that there is a Final Four, the format is already standardized. Additionally, some parties have consolidated the location. Real Madrid and Barcelona support bringing the Super Cup to Saudi Arabia, a nation where many rights have not yet been achieved, while teams condemn the abuse their families have endured and the fans’ distance.
In 2023, Real Madrid and Barcelona faced off for the first time in the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia. Xavi’s idea benefited from the competition; they defeated Real Madrid 3-1 and went on to win La Liga a few months later.
It didn’t take long for Real Madrid to exact their retribution. When the two teams faced off again a year later, Ancelotti’s team won even more convincingly (4-1) to end the season with a La Liga-Champions League double.
Jeddah will host another Clasico on Sunday, a traditional game that might either close the gap between the two teams or even the Super Cup trophy cabinet (Barcelona has 14 and Real Madrid 13).
