Buts : Bellingham (63e), Valjent (CSC 90e+3), Rodrygo (90e+6)
And Classic in the final!
For the second semi-final of the Spanish Super Cup, Real defeated Mallorca (3-0) this Thursday. Carlo Ancelotti’s men will meet their rivals FC Barcelona in the final on Sunday.
The Madrilenians had more difficulty than the Catalans the day before since the decision was made in the last half hour. Despite their clear domination, notably characterized by 67% possession in the first period, the teammates of Kylian Mbappé, holder, rarely found the target. The Frenchman distinguished himself with a volley sent just above, while his compatriots Aurélien Tchouaméni and Eduardo Camavinga took their chance from afar, without further success.
Returning from the locker rooms with the same intentions, the Meringues continued to press the accelerator. Rodrygo, who had already aimed a shot from a tight angle before sending another attempt over the top in the first half, struggled to recover an innocuous ball in the central circle. His hand on the tackle was not whistled and allowed Mbappé to extend the action in the axis, then for Vinícius Júnior to cross. In the area, Rodrygo hits the post, before the Frenchman comes up against Dominik Greif and Jude Bellingham manages to put the ball in the back of the net (1-0, 63e). The match ended in a false rhythm, but Real were able to widen the gap with an own goal from Martin Valjent, author of a clumsy tackle wrong-footing his goalkeeper (2-0, 90e+3)and on a cover, this time framed, by Rodrygo (3-0, 90e+5).
The only downside is that Tchouaméni left with an injury.
