Real Madrid vs Barcelona

King Abdullah Sports City, 12th January 2025 Supercopa de España - Final 2-5 (5' Mbappe, 22' Yamal, 36' Lewandowski (P), 38', 48' Raphinha, 45+10' Balde, 60' Rodrygo)

Barça's on fireeeeee, and Real Madrid's defence is terrifying — for all the wrong reasons. As the commentators noted during the first half, "defence makes the difference," and that sentiment perfectly describes the opening half. Both sides contain some of the most formidable attacking talent in the world, so when the offensive level is matched, it's the backline that determines success. Unfortunately for Real Madrid, their defensive display has been absolutely horrendous.

From the start, Barcelona looked rapid and quite satisfying in attack. Within the first few minutes, they created two very close chances that exposed Madrid's shaky defence. That being said, Mbappé's early goal came from a defensive lapse on Barcelona's part. Poor marking left him and Vini with all the space in the world, so conceding there was not a surprise. Stupid, but not a shock. Although the goal did seem to spark some confidence in Madrid's attack, particularly Bellingham, whose late run past the Barcelona defence was stunning to watch. As someone who doesn't watch much of La Liga, I hadn't seen him do that before, but it's clear why he’s so highly regarded.

From this point on, however, the match belonged to Barcelona. After Raphinha wrapped up his part-time referee shift, Barça finally put one past Madrid. It was a stunning touch of class from Lamine Yamal, receiving a brilliant pass from Lewandowski, and displaying such incredible composure to cut back across the goal to score. Barcelona's next goal came from a penalty conceded by an unnecessary challenge from Camavinga who caught Gavi's thigh with his foot. While I do think there was a bit of strategic diving from Gavi, it was a fair penalty, and Lewandowski, calm as you like, stepped up and obviously scored.

Real Madrid’s defence completely collapsed from there. They were caught napping when Raphinha made a sharp run behind their line to head in a sensational cross from Koundé. From then on, the game descended into chaos, as is often the case in El Clásico. Rudiger clattered Lewandowski twice within five minutes which although funny, was lowkey elder abuse.

I suspect the referee was an agent of  Florentino Perez because there's no other reason for Camavinga not being sent off. He was holding onto Lamine for dear life and managed to dodge a second yellow card. But Real Madrid quickly received karma in the from Balde scoring off the break after a wasted Madrid corner to cap off a cracking first half. Going into the second half, I was confident Barcelona had secured the win, but Real Madrid last minute black magic is a very real threat. Raphinha made it 5 for Barcelona with ease, cutting across acres of space, and chants of  "Visca Barça" echoed through the stadium. I'm pretty sure the Madrid defenders had gone home at this point. However, the game's dynamic shifted dramatically when Szczesny was sent off for a risky challenge on Mbappé, allowing Rodrygo to score from the subsequent free kick. From that moment, Madrid became the more dominant side, understandably so. And of course, the sketchy referring continued because how on earth did Vini also dodge a yellow card for dragging his studs down Kounde's Achilles.

The end of the match regained some life with a bit more sporadic play, but the last real threat — a late chance from Mbappé — proved futile. Without the red card, Madrid should be grateful, as this match could easily have ended 6-2 or even 7-2 in Barcelona’s favour. In the end, it was another El Clásico humiliation for Madrid and Hansi Flick’s first trophy with Barcelona. Fun fact: Flick has never lost a final, so perhaps Barça were destined to win all along!

Post-Match Review: Brighton v. Manchester United

Cruel loss, it could’ve easily gone the other way; the starting lineup cost us. Rashford and Casemiro need to make way for Garnacho and Collyer, it’s just not debatable anymore. As soon as De Ligt is fit, Maguire needs to make way so we can truly implement the high press with better control in midfield. The defensive lapses continue to be an issue and need to be addressed immediately.

I’m not interested in the Bruno substitution complaints because we’ve left him on for entire games on numerous occasions and lost/dropped points when we shouldn’t have. I’ll point at Ten for the starting XI. For the subs, I’ll just say that I would’ve pulled Casemiro instead of Bruno. But it really doesn’t make a difference if we’re going to defend like that. 😬

Brighton looked good as always. When I look at their bench, their speed, their tenacity, and their fitness levels, I see the level United have to get to if they want to challenge for the league again. Congratulations to Welbeck for scoring his 100th goal today and to Mitoma for getting the assist. Van Hecke impressed me; he’s a bit reckless, but he looks solid and decisive at the back. I’ll be keeping an eye on him. 📡

eu não consigo não imaginar ele narrando jogo na rádio. o tanto de entretenimento que o querido teria durante o 7x1, os rebaixamentos do Vasco, as brigas de torcida, gremista depredando a cabine do VAR. a existência de erros de abirtragem… e sim, ele é Flamengo.
