The final of the Spanish Supercup, where Barcelona claimed a commanding 5-2 victory over Real Madrid, left us with some fascinating insights into Barça's dominance in this competition, along with historical milestones for players and coaches.

Barcelona Extends Its Supercup Dominance

With 15 titles, Barcelona solidifies its status as the most successful team in Spanish Supercup history. Real Madrid had the chance to level the record in Jeddah, but the victory at the King Abdullah Stadium allowed the Catalans to maintain their supremacy. This trophy ends a one-year drought for Barça and adds to their 2023 Supercup win under the 'Final Four' format introduced in 2020.

Lamine Yamal: The Youngest Champion in Supercup History

At just 17 years and 183 days old, young winger Lamine Yamal became the youngest player to win the competition. He broke the record previously held by Aitor 'Txiki' Begiristain, who won the title in 1982 at 18 years and 138 days. This marks Yamal’s second professional trophy, following the 2022-23 LaLiga title, cementing his status as one of the brightest prospects in world football.

Hansi Flick Wins His First Trophy with Barcelona

The 2025 Spanish Supercup is Hansi Flick’s first title as Barcelona’s head coach. This achievement brings the German coach’s trophy count to eight, adding to his historic sextuple with Bayern Munich in 2020 and another Bundesliga title in 2021. Impressively, Flick maintains a perfect record in finals, having won all six he has managed.

A Historic El Clásico Thrashing

Barcelona scored five or more goals against Real Madrid for the 14th time in history, but this was the first time they achieved such a feat in the Spanish Supercup. Notable past thrashings include a 6-1 in the 1956-57 Copa del Rey and a 7-2 in the 1950-51 LaLiga season. This offensive firepower highlights the Catalans’ ability to shine in high-stakes matches.

Ancelotti: Beaten Only by Barcelona and Atlético in Finals

Despite his impressive record in finals, Carlo Ancelotti has suffered three defeats as Real Madrid’s coach—two against Barcelona in the 2023 and 2025 Supercups, and one against Atlético Madrid in the 2014 Spanish Supercup. The Italian manager has won 13 of his 16 finals with Los Blancos, including Champions League, UEFA Supercups, and Club World Cups.
