Raphinha Gets 8.5, Pedri With 8 | Barcelona Players Rated In Narrow Win Vs Real Madrid

Barcelona clashed heads with Real Madrid earlier tonight as they hoped to secure a win in the Spanish Super Cup final. The Catalan club made a good start to the game and scored the opening goal in the 36th minute when Raphinha found the back of the net. However, Vinicius Jr. equalised for Los Blancos in injury time. Robert Lewandowski put Barca 2-1 ahead soon after, but Gonzalo Garcia equalised in the dying embers of the first half. Hansi Flick’s men went into the half-time interval with a 2-2 scoreline.

Raphinha ended up scoring the winning goal for Barcelona in the 73rd minute. Frenkie de Jong was sent off by the referee in injury time, but the Catalan giants hung on and earned a narrow 3-2 win in the final.

Let’s take a look at how each Barcelona player fared during the clash against Real Madrid.

He made his fair share of saves but ended up conceding two goals late in the first half.

RB: Jules Kounde – 6.5/10

Kounde looked shaky when defending inside his half, but was lively going forward.

CB: Pau Cubarsi – 6/10

He struggled to cope with Vinicius Junior’s pace and looked far from convincing at the back.

CB: Eric Garcia – 6.5/10

Garcia made one poor error defensively, but was solid otherwise.
