Following their dazzling display on the pitch, the Blaugrana extended their dominance to social media, using their official X account to mock their eternal rivals in the aftermath of the resounding victory.
Barcelona’s masterclass in Jeddah
The clash at the King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah started with promise for Real Madrid, as Kylian Mbappe’s clinical strike in the fifth minute gave Los Blancos an early lead.
However, Barcelona responded with ferocity, turning the tide and asserting their dominance with a first-half goal frenzy.
Lamine Yamal kickstarted the comeback with a sublime equaliser, followed by Robert Lewandowski’s composed penalty after Eduardo Camavinga’s reckless foul on Gavi.
Raphinha added a third with a thunderous header, and Alejandro Balde capped off a flowing team move to make it 4-1 before halftime.
The second half saw more Barcelona brilliance, with Raphinha netting his second of the night. Despite Wojciech Szczęsny’s red card, which led to a consolation free-kick goal from Rodrygo, Barcelona’s victory was never in doubt, as they cruised to their first trophy of the season.
Savage social media celebration
Following the emphatic win, Barcelona’s social media team seized the moment to troll Real Madrid. On X, the club posted a cheeky message: “Anybody up for some FIVE GUYS?”
The post, a nod to the popular fast-food chain, was also a pointed reference to the five goals Barcelona put past their archrivals in a double entendre.
The playful jab drew widespread attention, with fans applauding the creativity of the post while celebrating the Blaugrana’s dominant performance on the pitch.
As Barcelona celebrate their second El Clasico triumph of the season, the Blaugrana will hope to take their performance in the Super Cup back to Spain as they continue their fight for the LaLIga title.
