Real Madrid 1-3 FC Barcelona LIVE! El Clasico result, match stream and latest updates as Xavi wins Supercopa

Real Madrid vs Barcelona LIVE!

Barcelona were crowned Spanish Super Cup champions after goals from Gavi, Robert Lewandowski and Pedri earned them a 3-1 win over bitter rivals Real Madrid in Saudi Arabia on Sunday. They took the lead in the 33rd minute after Real defender Antonio Rudiger passed across his own area to Sergio Busquets, who began a move that ended with Gavi all alone inside the box to score with a precise left-foot strike.

Lewandowski extended the lead 12 minutes later on the counter when Frenkie de Jong found Gavi, who ghosted in behind Real's defensive line. He sprinted through the left channel before putting it on a plate for the Polish striker, who tapped into the back of the empty net.

Once again a costly mistake allowed Barcelona to score. Substitute Dani Ceballos lost the ball in midfield and Gavi sprinted forward and crossed for Pedri to fire point-black into the empty net. Karim Benzema scored a consolation goal for Real in added time, striking home on the rebound after Marc-Andre ter Stegen denied his first attempt.

21:00 , Marc Mayo

The stage is being set in Riyadh...

It might not be quite as impressive as this graphic, though!

Barcelona celebrations!

20:57 , Marc Mayo

‘Campeones, ole ole ole!’ chanted by the Blaugrana squad as Gavi accepts the Man of the Match trophy.

20:49 , Marc Mayo

90 mins: Here comes Fati as Garcia puts in a vital challenge to deny Benzema.

Gavi taken off to a rousing reception. Pedri also off for Sergi Roberto.

20:47 , Marc Mayo

88 mins: Lewandowski spots Courtois off his line and has a go from the halfway line..!

He just slips as he shoots and it drifts wide, the goalkeeper probably having it covered anyway.

20:46 , Marc Mayo

86 mins: A really loose cross from Nacho on the right sails out into touch. Oh dear.

Barcelona bring Kessie and Garcia on for Araujo and De Jong.

20:44 , Marc Mayo

84 mins: All Barcelona as the clock ticks down and Xavi nears his first trophy as coach at the Camp Nou.

20:41 , Marc Mayo

81 mins: Valverde the latest Madrid man in the book for a late one on De Jong.

Real Madrid chance!

20:39 , Marc Mayo

79 mins: A fine parry from Ter Stegen to deny Rodrygo’s placed effort. A bit of one for the cameras but a smart stop nonetheless.

20:38 , Marc Mayo

78 mins: A word from the referee to calm both sides down and Real will be happy to see Dembele go off.

Raphinha, today linked with Arsenal, is introduced.

20:37 , Marc Mayo

77 mins: The party football is coming out from Barcelona now, Rodrygo eventually bumping Busquets to the turf in frustration!

20:35 , Marc Mayo

75 mins: A fierce, competitive battle for a ball over the top between Lewandowski and Militao ends up with both players in a heap on the floor.

No foul either way, says the referee.

20:33 , Marc Mayo

74 mins: Good drive from distance by Asensio, Ter Stegen is equal to it though.

20:32 , Marc Mayo

71 mins: A bit of a reply as Vinicius goes down and fans’ call for a penalty is waved away. Kroos’ shot is saved.

More changes now as Kroos and Carvajal are off for Asensio and Nacho.

GGGOOOOOAAALLLL!!! Real Madrid 0-3 Barcelona

20:28 , Marc Mayo

68 mins: PEDRI GETS IN ON THE ACT!

Oh so simple for Barcelona as Ceballos gives it away and Lewandowski slips in Gavi, whose pass across the box is placed home by the unmarked Pedri.

That’s his first Clasico goal, too!

20:28 , Marc Mayo

67 mins: Dembele twists and turns up against Rudiger - the flag goes up though.

Araujo booked as Real play it quick and Vinicius is barged over.

20:24 , Marc Mayo

65 mins: Modric taken off, that is a surprise. Hardly the worst player on the pitch.

20:24 , Marc Mayo

64 mins: Ancelotti turns to his bench again and Ceballos will soon enter the fray. Lots of star power among the Madrid subs but not many players in form, at the peak of their game.

Benzema, though, looks to force the issue with a nice passing move just succumbing to Barcelona pressure.

20:22 , Marc Mayo

61 mins: Not seen a lot from Pedri today and he pings a skewed pass into the referee’s midriff. A drop ball continues their spell of possession.

20:18 , Marc Mayo

58 mins: End to end now, a fine game of football!

Dembele’s latest run is snuffed out as Balde picks it up and nearly picks out Gavi in the box.

Then it’s Vinicius’ turn although Benzema fails to get the ball out of his feet on the 18-yard line.

20:16 , Marc Mayo

56 mins: Rudiger directs a header high and over the bar under some good pressure from De Jong at the far post.

20:14 , Marc Mayo

54 mins: Another smart Dembele run and Rudiger can’t touch him as Carvajal clears.

The ball comes back and Courtois denies Lewandowski from a very tight angle.

Is 3-0 on the horizon?!

Barcelona chance!

20:11 , Marc Mayo

51 mins: Nothing grand from the capital club just yet as Vinicius is caught offside.

A goal will change things for sure but Barcelona looking good and Balde finds Dembele on a burst forward...

Courtois saves with his legs!

20:08 , Marc Mayo

49 mins: Madrid not happy as Christensen drags back Rodrygo in pretty convincing fashion. Yellow card.

20:05 , Marc Mayo

46 mins: Rodrygo on for Camavinga at the break, Valverde will drop back into the Real midfield.

Kick-off! Real Madrid 0-2 Barcelona

20:05 , Marc Mayo

The second half of the Supercopa de Espana final begins, Barcelona well on top in this El Clasico tie.

What will Ancelotti do at the break?

20:01 , Marc Mayo

Rodrygo, Eden Hazard, Marco Asensio, Mariano Diaz... the Real Madrid boss is not exactly short of options to change things up.

What a stat

20:00 , Marc Mayo

Gavi becomes the youngest-ever player to bag a goal and an assist in the Clasico!

First-half highlights: Lewandowski puts Barcelona 2-0 up

19:58 , Marc Mayo

Stats check

19:53 , Marc Mayo

Just the one shot for Real Madrid in that half.

Barcelona on top with the ball, 55 to 45 per cent, in shots with three of seven on target, and with only two fouls conceded to nine.

First-half highlights: Gavi breaks the deadlock

19:49 , Marc Mayo

45 mins: One minuted added on...

GGGOOOOAAALLL!!! Real Madrid 0-2 Barcelona

19:45 , Marc Mayo

44 mins: LEWANDOWSKI WITH A SIMPLE FINISH!

Madrid all at sea as Gavi races in down the left, the Pole is open in the middle and once the cross reaches him you know how where it ends up!

19:44 , Marc Mayo

43 mins: Vital, vital slide tackle by Camavinga shuts down a threatening Dembele run.

Madrid a bit asleep as Barcelona launch a fresh ball wide for Lewandowski but its overhit.

19:42 , Marc Mayo

41 mins: A bit of frustration creeping in as Carvajal barges Gavi over by the Barcelona corner flag.

The young midfielder is greeted with loud ‘Gavi, Gavi’ chances from those of a Blaugrana persuasion inside the ground.

19:40 , Marc Mayo

39 mins: Madrid get a foot back on the ball as a corner is cleared. Nothing to test Ter Stegen yet, though.

19:38 , Marc Mayo

37 mins: A sumptuous back-to-front move from the Catalans leads to Real scrambling clear in the box and they win a useful foul.

Testing times for Los Blancos as Pedri breaks forward... Snuffed out.

19:36 , Marc Mayo

35 mins: That goal has only brightened Barcelona’s play and a second before the half-time break would be a massive moment in this final.

GGGOOOOAALLLL!!! Real Madrid 0-1 Barcelona

19:34 , Marc Mayo

33 mins: GAVI!

Madrid lose possession in their own half and Lewandowski slips in the youngster for a fine finish past Courtois!

19:33 , Marc Mayo

32 mins: Rudiger powers a header clear and clatters into Courtois for his troubles, unsurprisingly leaving the defender flat on his back!

He’s alright to continue, though.

19:32 , Marc Mayo

31 mins: Mendy booked for felling Dembele on the edge of the box. The winger’s pace doing the business, there.

19:31 , Marc Mayo

30 mins: A bit of a lull in the game which is no surprise after a fast start.

Araujo tries to break the malaise with a run from right-back, Dembele’s cross is cleared.

19:30 , Marc Mayo

28 mins: Only that Benzema chance to go on for Madrid so far with Lewandowski hitting the post for Barcelona.

19:26 , Marc Mayo

25 mins: Vinicius wanders inside and a cute dink over the top allows Benzema to trouble Ter Stegen - he’s offside, though.

19:23 , Marc Mayo

22 mins: A Mexican Wave does the rounds as a Dembele cutback into the box catches Pedri on his heels.

19:21 , Marc Mayo

20 mins: Back up the other end, Militao blocks De Jong’s drive well and Balde fires a first time cross which evades everyone.

It may have been intended as a shot but it was hardly the worst cross in the world, in fact.

Real Madrid chance!

19:19 , Marc Mayo

19 mins: Better from Los Blancos as a good Mendy cross picks out Benzema, who places a trademark header across goal and only just wide!

19:18 , Marc Mayo

18 mins: Ancelotti is naturally as cool as a cucumber but even the Italian is starting to bark some instructions from the touchline to try and sharpen up his Real charges.

A spell of possession now to take the edge off this Clasico.

19:16 , Marc Mayo

15 mins: Fair to say Barcelona have enjoyed the better of the first quarter of an hour.

OFF THE POST!

19:14 , Marc Mayo

13 mins: Lewandowski takes aim from 20 yards and Courtois tips it onto the woodwork!

Balde has a great chance on the rebound... over!

19:12 , Marc Mayo

11 mins: Just over from Lewandowski as he backpeddled to reach a decent De Jong cross.

19:10 , Marc Mayo

9 mins: Great work by Camavinga to win the ball and ride a couple of chances but Araujo smartly ends Real’s move.

A loose Vinicius touch goes into touch although that doesn’t stop the Uruguayan flying in with a challenge! He caught his man for sure, even if a throw-in had already been given...

Barcelona chance!

19:07 , Marc Mayo

6 mins: Busquets clipped by Kroos and a lovely free-kick is chipped to the far post as Araujo evades his marker...

He just can’t make serious contact from only a couple of yards out!

19:05 , Marc Mayo

4 mins: The benefit of playing this Supercopa mid-season is that this does not at all feel like a summer friendly. Riyadh is making for a vibrant atmosphere, also.

Lots of energy being reciprocated on the pitch.

19:03 , Marc Mayo

3 mins: Both sides keen to press their opponent off the ball, which should make for a good game.

Mendy nicks the ball off a protesting Lewandowski but Kounde does well to win a goal kick.

19:02 , Marc Mayo

1 mins: Gavi lining up wide left in attack for Barcelona, Valverde also high up on the pitch in Madrid’s right-wing position.

Kick-off!

19:00 , Marc Mayo

A packed house in Saudi Arabia as Real Madrid and Barcelona compete for the Supercopa de Espana trophy!

Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea blows his whistle and we’re underway...

Benzema vs Lewandowski

18:58 , Marc Mayo

Karim Benzema has scored in three consecutive games since the restart with his season a bit stunted by injuries.

Robert Lewandowski, meanwhile, ended a bit of a dry run (by his standards) by scoring his 19th of the season in midweek - almost double Benzema’s tally!

Who will come out on top tonight?

Here come the players!

18:56 , Marc Mayo

Riyadh greets the Clasico rivals after what is a rather long walk down the tunnel.

Countdown to kick-off

18:50 , Marc Mayo

Just ten minutes to go until El Clasico!

18:48 , Marc Mayo

Real Madrid claimed their 12th Supercopa crown 12 months ago by defeating Athletic Club in the final.

Warm-ups just finishing up

18:43 , Marc Mayo

A fair bit of booing for the Barcelona players suggests Los Blancos have the edge when it comes to numbers in the stand today.

It’s not often you see a banner depicting a club president!

El Clasico throwback

18:39 , Marc Mayo

Don’t worry Real fans, we have one of yours too!

Xavi nonplussed by records

18:34 , Marc Mayo

As he chases his first Barcelona trophy as a coach, Xavi has insisted he is not concerned by Carlo Ancelotti’s record of not losing a final since 2010.

“I see Real Madrid in the same way that I always have - they're strong everywhere,” Xavi said. “They're well organised tactically, and strong.

“They have players who can make a difference and are a really strong opponent. They're the domestic and European champions. Real Madrid are Real Madrid and they have an extra level in finals.

“We are very motivated and have that little bit extra because it's Real Madrid. Everything would change with a trophy in the cabinet, but Real Madrid are dangerous even if they don't play well.”

El Clasico throwback

18:28 , Marc Mayo

A big day for Alejandro Balde

18:22 , Marc Mayo

The young left-back is chosen ahead of Jordi Alba to start for Barcelona... a changing of the guard, perhaps?

Carlo Ancelotti taking it game by game

18:18 , Marc Mayo

Winning football matches, not trophies, the message from the effervescently calm Carlo Ancelotti ahead of the game.

The Real Madrid boss said: “We're not thinking about winning every title.

“We're simply focused on competing in every competition and in every game. Now we have to think about this match and this title that we're playing for. We shouldn't get carried away with more difficult things.

“We have to take it one step at a time and head into the closing stretch of the season in a good position.”

How Real Madrid reached the final

18:13 , Marc Mayo

Just like Barcelona, a nervy penalty shootout did the business after 120 minutes against Valencia.
