Spanish Super Cup | Spanish League”>Real Madrid champion! Doesn’t matter when you read it? It is what they fear in Spain after seeing him lift the trophy of the Spanish Super Cup.
Ancelotti‘s team was lord and master of the final against Athletic, winning 2-0 and giving the feeling of having deserved something more, had it not been for the defensive sacrifice of their rival.
Real Madrid deserved victory from the whistle because they took charge of their favoritism, they had intention and the ball and it took them a while to make a difference basically due to the discipline of an Athletic determined to take refuge and endure as the first proposal.
That is why Ancelotti’s team took until minute 37 to decipher the key: Rodrygo was fast, both in mind and in legs, and in the only counterattack that the rival gave up, he accelerated to put the pass into the middle where Modric arrived to define at pleasure Nice association, nice so much to open the account in Riyadh.
And then, except for some timid approach from Athletic, the task was to extend the advantage, which only happened at minute 51. When Álvarez came out with his hands up to cut off a shot by Benzema and the VAR caught him: the Frenchman himself charged him the error and put the 2-0 that seemed fairer with what was happening on the field.
Athletic did what they could: they put players on the offensive, they had a frank shot on goal with Sancet before the break and little else. He had a penalty at 85, but Raúl García’s shot was saved by Courtois with his legs, in case one more test of the new champion’s resources was needed, which ended with ten due to Militao’s expulsion. And it is that it is not easy to stand up to a Madrid that knows they are a winner, that does not complicate itself in its field and apart from that it has enough talent to be a threat against the rival goal.
Ancelotti added a title that was missing and Real Madrid won a new Spanish Super Cup, a scene that also seems inevitable in LaLiga and that confirms fears: there is no way to overshadow the ‘merengue’ in Spain.
