Real Madrid romped to the Spanish Super Cup on Wednesday, as they breezed past Barcelona 2-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu and to a 5-1 aggregate win.
With just four minutes on the clock, Marco Asensio offered another indication of his incredible talent, thudding a stunning 25-yard shot into the top corner. Karim Benzema grabbed the second the hosts' dominance deserved before the interval.
After the break, Barca did improve, with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez both hitting the woodwork in pursuit of a consolation. But Madrid were able to see the game out with ease, making a major statement of intent ahead of the new La Liga season.
