Late Sunday evening in Spain, the battle for the Super Cup trophy began. In the first Super Cup meeting, last season's Copa del Rey finalists - Sevilla and Barcelona - faced each other head-to-head. In the second half, Barcelona, who had the upper hand, defeated the Andalusian team with a 2-0 result. The first half saw a fierce and relentless battle. Neither side had the advantage, but midway through the half, the Catalans received unexpected surprises - both defender Jeremy Mathieu and crucial player Andres Iniesta had to leave the match due to injuries. Despite the setbacks, Barcelona managed to cope and took the lead early in the second half. After a great pass from Denis Suarez, Arda Turan chested the ball down for Luis Suarez to score and put the visitors ahead. Sevilla did not crumble after conceding and had chances to equalize the score, but Barcelona also had their opportunities. Ultimately, in the 81st minute, substitute Munir El Haddadi sealed the victory for the Spanish champions. The second leg at Camp Nou stadium will take place next Thursday. Result: Sevilla 0 - 2 Barcelona 55' [0 - 1] L. Suarez 81' [0 - 2] Munir
