Fc barcelona vs real madrid el clasico

If ever there was a changing of the guard in the El Clasico rivalry, it felt like today was that day as Barcelona’s youthful midfield ran circles around Real Madrid’s aging veterans in a resounding 3-1 win to secure the Supercopa de Espana title. 18-year-old Gavi was the star of the show, with a goal and two assists to secure his first silverware and bury a dagger into Real Madrid hearts. 20-year-old Pedri added a goal himself as the two young Spaniards controlled the dynamic throughout with their pressing and passing alike. On the other end, aging midfield duo Toni Kroos and Luka Madrid were nowhere to be found, as Kroos especially was entirely off the pace. Both were yanked midway through the second half but it was far too late at that point to change the run of play. The win for Barcelona breaks a four-match duck for the Blaugrana in this rivalry, in a big moment to secure the Supercopa crown. Real Madrid, defeated in this final and sitting three points back of Barcelona in the La Liga table, have lots of questions to answer as they return to Spain and look ahead to producing a title challenge as well as a Champions League defense.

There have also been periods of stalemate, but those are rare - the longest Madrid and Barça have gone without a winner in El Clasico is a season and a half - three consecutive draws between March 2002 and April 2003.

After winning everything there is to win as a player for Barcelona, Xavi has won his first trophy as manager of the club in a 3-1 victory over Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final on Sunday. It's a victory that shows both that Barcelona are back and that their academy approach is bearing fruit at the highest levels again with Gavi having a goal and two assists to match Robert Lewandowski's goal and an assist. This is Barcelona's 14th Super Cup win as the club are the most successful team in Spain in the competition's history. Real Madrid could've matched them with the same amount of wins but Carlo Ancelotti's midfield didn't show up for this edition of El Clasico. Missing Aurelien Tchouameni, Eduardo Camavinga had to deputize in midfield and wasn't up for the match, getting dispossessed for Barcelona's second goal and being suspect defensively. Camavinga was withdrawn at the half for Rodrygo but at that point, the damage was already done. These were the kind of matches that Real Madrid were expected to miss Casemiro in as he has changed Manchester United's midfield identity and the loss to Barcelona won't ease those worries. For Barcelona, also getting a goal from Gavi, they're already clear atop La Liga and a comprehensive victory over Real Madrid only reinforces their belief of returning to the Spanish summit. Karim Benzema scored a late consolation goal for Los Blancos. CBS Sports has a brand new daily soccer podcast, covering everything you need to know about the...
