It didn’t take long until 2025 to organize our first El Clásico. The Spanish Super Cup final will feature Barcelona and Real Madrid, the third consecutive generation that the general features these teams, with commercial victories in 2023 and 2024. Since the final it has moved to a four-team layout in 2020, which has won through Barcelona or Real Madird and for three editions, the team that wins the overall has also gone on to promote the Angelina League name at the end of the season.
Although it is a small pattern measurement, it will also turn out that this adjustment is nothing more than a typical exposure. A Clasico always has something at stake for these teams, even if it’s just to gain a mental advantage, but with cutlery in the design, it will always be more ruthless.
Extreme assembly
These are also other teams in addition to the maximum generation that faced each other in October, but Barcelona expects a homogeneous result. Hansi Flick’s men established themselves as true Los Angeles League contenders with a victory that achieved a remarkable 4-0 scoreline. Robert Lewandowski scored a double and, more importantly, Barcelona was able to keep a clean sheet against a leading team. The adjustment exposed one of the biggest flaws in Carlo Ancelotti’s team that has now been shored up while Real Madrid sit top of the Los Angeles League. It was an adjustment that was closer than the ranking suggested and is a possibility to turn its expansion around.
How they gave them to you right here
In Saudi Arabia, both teams won their semifinals with shutout victories, but in quite different ways. Through Athletic Club, Barcelona were placed under temporary control by Gavi before controlling the game from start to finish. Lamine Yamal added the goal of becoming the second-youngest player to qualify at the festival after having managed to score himself against Osasuna’s top flight. There are few words to explain what Yamal is doing at most from the age of 17, but he will be a key figure in the final.
For Madrid, they got off to a slow start against Mallorca, but once Jude Bellingham opened the scoring in the 63rd minute, the floodgates opened. Los Blancos forced a personal goal and made Rodrygo qualify both in the stoppage era to achieve a result that was more a reflection of their dominance throughout the match. Now they will look to maintain that momentum in the general.
History of the classic
This matchup would be the 259th time these two groups have faced off at a legitimate festival in what has been a hotly contested contest. Barcelona has 101 wins, while Real Madrid has 105 and the duo has drawn another 52 games. Even in terms of goals, the statistics are tight with Barcelona scoring 423 and Real Madrid scoring 433. In the Spanish Super Cup in particular, this would be the 18th match, but Real Madrid have had the advantage in this festival winning 10 matches, drawing two. , and going down 5 to Barcelona. Barcelona is the most successful team in the history of the Super Cup, winning it 14 times, but Real Madrid can do things with a victory to add to its 13 titles at the festival.
registration door
Throughout this tournament, Barcelona has been dealing with a problem that has already been solved Factor regarding the signings of Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor. Both players were registered for the season thanks to a provision that allows Barcelona to collect 80% of the salary due to an injured player. The problem is that the registration only lasted until December 31 to grant Barcelona the opportunity to keep revenue streams intact or find alternative tactics to accept monetary rules. When Barcelona made a deal to promote luxury seats at the Spotify Camp Nou, the RFEF-Los Angeles League Coordination Commitment Monitoring Committee considered that the duo could not yet register because Barcelona could not display it. They had gained budget with that to do business at that time. This has now been resolved in court to verify both LA League matches, but that doesn’t mean Barcelona are out of the woods yet.
Megastar attacker Raphinha talked about how this would affect business in the age of gamers And if the consequences are more detectable, it is quite likely that Barcelona will not be able to guarantee the registration of a player for a full season without having to make some appeals. When issues like this have been cropping up since COVID, there are questions about when Barcelona’s funds will be released.
Can Mbappé be the guy?
After signing Kylian Mbappé, Real Madrid were expected to dominate international football and, although they are still handling it well, this is not as runaway as expected. A natural left winger, Mbappé has consistently occupied areas that are occupied by Vinicius Juvenil for Los Blancos, leader of a faltering attack for Madrid. There were moments where he showed he could, but they were anything but consistent. With 13 goals and three assists in 26 appearances in all competitions, Mbappé has been far from his usual scoring rate and has also missed two consequences this season.
On the bright side, Mbappé doesn’t need to be exactly the same man he was at Paris Saint-Germain to help Real Madrid win, but given his broadcast setup, he does want to include being the superstar number nine and assuming central positions in the tone. That adjustment has been taking place but it will be a struggle to stop being a left back in his DNA.
Prediction
This will be an adjustment that will be interesting because Barcelona’s offside trap has been effective defensively, but if it fails, they may be able to lean a bit. Mbappé can be a player who likes to play from the back shoulder of a defence, so he is likely to be caught offside due to disciplined defending. But in doing that, Barcelona also did not hide behind an ultimatum like Federico Valverde losing the ball over the lead or taking long shots to control them. If Real Madrid can prevent Yamal from working on the flanks of the clash, there is certainly a path to victory, but it will be a closely contested matter between the two. Classification: Real Madrid 3, Barcelona 2
