Barcelona won the Spanish Super Cup for the first time since the competition was revamped and moved to Saudi Arabia with a 3-1 victory over Real Madrid on Sunday.
Robert Lewandowski, Gavi and Pedri scored a goal each at King Fahd Stadium in Riyadh to give Barcelona its first Super Cup trophy since 2018 - and its 14th overall - and the first since the tournament began being played in a Final Four format in 2020 in a lucrative deal for the Spanish soccer federation.
