We review some of the best jokes with images of the stake that took place last night, where Real Madrid prevailed (2-3) in the extension of the first semifinal of the Spanish Super Cup against FC Barcelona.
The stake would begin knowing, an hour in advance, that Ferran Torres was going to make his debut as a starter. The competition organized by the Royal Spanish Football Federation is not related to the registrations in LaLiga, so he could have played regardless of not having been previously enlisted in the domestic competition. Being the renewal of Samuel Umtiti (from 2023 to 2026) one of the necessary actions to achieve this, he was used from the bench.
Both teams played a match that, generally, would have taken place with the first leg in one stadium and the second leg in the other if they were the LaLiga and Copa del Rey champions in their original format. However, they also wanted to criticize this context from the joke, given that the clash has been disputed in the Saudi fiefdom thanks to the payment of 30 million euros per year to the Federation.
FC Barcelona had a good game, starting well and trying to take the initiative. However, a lethal counterattack culminated by Vinícius Júnior would overtake the meringues before reaching half an hour of play.
Shortly before the break, a clearance by Éder Militao bounced off Luuk De Jong and, after touching the post, the ball entered returning the equality in the electronic. The memes did not take long to associate the Dutch’s first name with the word “Lucky”, due to phonetic similarity and due to the “luck” (English translation) that he had to score said so much.
The dynamics of the match was sustained throughout it, with a Barça team dominating possession in the second half and in extra time, but with the meringues knowing how to attack spaces in a lethal way.
Federico Valverde’s goal in extra time gave the whites the final victory. In the face of defeat, in Can Barça they can be satisfied with the meeting of their own, something that also appeared in the memes.
With this result, Real Madrid adds five consecutive Clásicos winning and six without knowing defeat. He has not been defeated by his greatest rival since March 2019.
Real Madrid will seek their twelfth Spanish Super Cup on Sunday against Atlético de Madrid or Athletic Club, who meet in the second final tonight. If he wins the title, he will approach FC Barcelona, which has historically dominated the competition (13).
