In the first match of the Spanish Super Cup, the team "Barcelona" was defeated at home 1:3 by Madrid's "Real".
After the match, Barcelona's head coach Ernesto Valverde said:
"It's not enough to enter the opponent's defense areas - you need to score goals. I don't think we lack the ability to score goals, it's just that today the visitors were more accurate.
They beat us in one-on-one situations and scored a fantastic goal, and eventually added another one, making the score 1:3.
It was a close game, and the visitors played powerfully in the middle of the field, disrupting our plans.
Congratulations to "Real" and we will try to perform better in the second match," Valverde assured.
"The goal difference is ungrateful and the opponents became favorites, but it's not over yet - that's not how it goes after one failure.
When you lose, you want the next match to come as soon as possible so that you can correct everything on the field."
The return match for the Super Cup trophy will take place at the "Santiago Bernabeu" stadium next Wednesday.
