Barcelona and Osasuna contended for a spot in the Spanish Super Cup final, with the match taking place in the capital of Saudi Arabia, Riyadh.
In the first half, nothing particularly noteworthy unfolded on the field. Barcelona dominated possession but failed to create real scoring opportunities.
Fifteen minutes into the second half, after of a pass from Gundogan, Leventowski propelled the Blaugranas ahead. Osasuna was unable to respond, and under the guidance of Xavi, Barcelona comfortably navigated the match to a victorious conclusion. Furthermore, in injury time, the Catalans netted once again through Yamal's efforts.
For the trophy, the Catalan side will square off against their perennial rival, Real Madrid, who yesterday triumphed over Atlético in a dramatic encounter. The Spanish Super Cup final is scheduled for January 14th.
