In the Spanish Super Cup (Supercopa de España) final held in Saudi Arabia, Barcelona staged a dramatic comeback to defeat their arch-rivals Real Madrid 5-2, powered by the lethal trident of Raphinha, Yamal, and Lewandowski. This victory not only secured Barcelona’s first trophy of the 2024-2025 season but also marked the first silverware for their new head coach, Hansi Flick, at the club.
It was Barcelona’s 15th Spanish Super Cup title, solidifying their position as the most successful club in the competition’s history, with Real Madrid closely trailing behind with 13 titles.

Lamine Yamals 3-0-4 Goal Celebration: What Does It Mean?
@Barca
@Liverpool
@H2H
Basically, ‘304’ is the postal code for Rocafonda, 08304, which is one of the poorest areas where Yamal grew up.
It’s a multicultural neighborhood that’s often described as “forgotten, isolated, and stigmatised” by the Spanish newspaper El País
That’s why he chose ‘304’ for his goal celebration. It’s his way of showing love for where he’s from and trying to change the stereotypes about Rocafonda.
You’ll also see the number 304 on his boots, along with the flags of his parents’ home countries, and even his Instagram username has ‘304’ at the end.
FC Barcelona On This Day in History: Founding on November 29 1899

On November 29th, FC Barcelona will celebrate its 125th anniversary with a grand event at the Liceu Theatre. The club has been preparing for this special occasion for months. The celebration will feature numerous legendary figures from Barcelona’s history, including former coaches Frank Rijkaard, Louis van Gaal, and Pep Guardiola, as well as iconic players such as Xavi Hernández and Andrés Iniesta. Lionel Messi, currently in the United States, is also expected to make a special trip to Spain to attend this monumental event.

10. 🇪🇸Ferran Torres - €55m Torres had spent less than two years at Manchester City after arriving from Valencia in the summer of 2020, but he was homesick. The Spaniard left Pep Guardiola’s side after scoring 16 goals in 43 appearances for the club in 2021-22. Ferran Torres has largely failed to live up to expectations at Barcelona so far. In my impression, he is still Enrique’s son-in-law (though they have since broken up) and Guardiola’s disciple.

Two Key Reasons Why Barça Sacked Manager Xavi
@Barca
@Liverpool
@H2H
First, it’s clear that Xavi genuinely loves FC Barcelona. Aware of the club’s financial difficulties, he took on the role by paying his own €2.5 million release clause. Even if he were dismissed, he didn’t demand severance pay or his remaining salary. However, Xavi’s coaching skills have been somewhat limited.
Firstly, he struggled to manage relationships with both the club’s management and the players. Before his dismissal by Laporta, Xavi publicly announced plans to release Lewandowski and Roque in the upcoming summer transfer window and decided not to exercise the buyout options for Félix and Cancelo—without prior consultation with the management.

@H2H
Barcelona: One of Spain’s Oldest Established Clubs Barcelona was founded on November 29, 1899, three years before Real Madrid, established in 1902. Early on, Barça achieved remarkable success; in 1900, they competed in the first Catalan Regional Championship and secured second place, going on to win the Catalan Championship the following year with an undefeated 8-game streak. By 1924, in celebration of their 25th anniversary, Barcelona had already won five Copa del Rey titles and boasted over 10,000 members.
