Blaugrana in English Barcelona news
The aftermath of the Spanish Super Cup match was very difficult for Real Madrid and the players of Carlo Ancelotti, who will take today a vacation to forget the Spanish Super Cup.
Real Madrid lost yesterday at King Fahd International Stadium to Barcelona, in a match in which the team’s image was damaged more than the result itself.
However, who rose to it, as always, was Florentino Pérez and the directors of Real Madrid in Riyadh, something that was confirmed by Juan Laporta himself.
“Real Madrid was a worthy opponent. They know how to react in victory and defeat. They were very elegant”, said the Barcelona president after the match.
Florentino Pérez also noticed what happened on the field, both with his team and with the Catalans, who left some very good individual performances.
The Real Madrid president was surprised by the level shown by one of the Barcelona players, although he did not appear on the covers after the match, because he was neither Gavi nor Pedri, which made him not hesitate to tell Juan Laporta how much he liked him, especially since he left an impression on his way of playing.
The player who surprised Florentino Perez is the left-back Balde, who actually joined the Spain national team at the “last minute” in the last World Cup in Qatar 2022, after Jaya was injured.
The Barcelona youngster showed his full repertoire, as he is very fast, with a good left foot and somewhat “unknown” as he is still a young player in Spanish football, despite the fact that he has forced Jordi Alba to the bench.
