**BARÇA REGAIN DOMINANCE OVER MADRID WITH THRILLING 3-2 WIN** In a pulsating Supercopa final, Barcelona edged out Real Madrid 3-2 in Saudi Arabia, with Raphinha scoring the winner in the 73rd minute to seal a third consecutive final victory over their arch-rivals under coach Hansi Flick. The Brazilian forward, who has been in scintillating form against Madrid, netted his second goal of the game in the latter stages of the first half, and his winner was a deflected shot that deceived Thibaut Courtois. Vinícius Júnior's stunning equalizer in the 46th minute had brought Madrid level, but Raphinha's tireless running and skill ultimately proved decisive. The win sends a strong message from Barça, who have now accumulated a four-point lead at the top of LaLiga. Madrid's conservative approach, which saw them drop deep and invite Barça to attack, was a deliberate strategy to avoid a heavy defeat, but ultimately failed to yield the desired result. Despite creating chances on the counter, Madrid's xG totals were significantly lower than Barça's, highlighting the Catalan side's dominance. The win marks a significant success for Flick's Barça, who have now won four trophies under his leadership. With a Champions League title still elusive, the team will be looking to build on this momentum and make a deep run in Europe's premier club competition.
