Ernesto Valverde learned from his mistakes and this year won the Spanish Super Cup trophies - in the final held in Morocco, the Catalans triumphed with a score of 2:1.
The hero of the match was Ousmane Dembele. For a long time, the result was 1:1, but in the 78th minute, the Frenchman unleashed an impressive shot from about 25 meters and "Barca" achieved victory.
Before the match, there was speculation about O. Dembele's future at the "Barcelona" club. Last year, the Frenchman could not show his mastery due to injuries, so doubts remained until now.
"I don't know if he needed a match like today. This question should be asked to him," said E. Valverde.
"He is a great footballer. He knows that we expect a lot from him, so we have him in our ranks. I am really happy about the goal, but even without it, the match was very good for him," added the coach.
