Real Madrid Overcomes Mallorca to Set Up Supercopa Final Against Barcelona

Posted on January 10, 2025

Real Madrid secured a convincing 3-0 victory over Mallorca in the semi-finals of the Spanish Supercopa, earning them a place in the final against their arch-rivals Barcelona. The match, held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, showcased strong performances from key players, particularly Jude Bellingham, who opened the scoring in the second half. This match sets the stage for a highly anticipated El Clásico showdown, allowing Madrid a chance for redemption after their previous defeat to Barcelona in La Liga.

Bellingham's goal came in the 63rd minute, capitalizing on a rebound after a flurry of attacking play. Despite facing a setback early in the second half with the loss of Aurelien Tchouameni due to an injury, Madrid maintained their composure and continued to dominate. An own goal by Mallorca's Martin Valjent further solidified Madrid's lead before Rodrygo rounded off the scoring late in the match.

Madrid's coach Carlo Ancelotti praised the attacking prowess of his team, highlighting the potential of their front players when they are fully engaged. The win not only demonstrates Madrid's current form but also raises questions about the availability of Luka Modric for the final after he missed the match against Mallorca due to illness. As the team prepares to face Barcelona, fans and analysts alike are eager to see if Madrid can reclaim the Supercopa title they won the previous year.
