Barcelona clinched a 2‑0 victory over Real Madrid in the Spanish Supercopa final at Castellón, extending their run to five consecutive titles. Alexia Putellas converted a late penalty to seal the win after Esmee Brugts headed the opening goal from a Mapi Leon corner. Goalkeeper Misa Rodríguez faced 18 shots, twelve on target.

Real Madrid coach Pau Quesada admitted his side left the match angry, noting the narrowest margin they have forced on Barça since their historic 3‑1 win at Montjuïc last March. In Liga F, Madrid trail Barcelona by ten points after 17 games, having dropped three league matches this season.

Madrid now turn their focus to the UEFA Women’s Champions League playoff against Paris FC, a potential repeat of their group‑stage draw. A win would set up a quarter‑final clash with Barcelona, offering a chance to test the narrowing gap on a European stage. Fans will watch whether the rivalry can finally tip in Madrid’s favour.
