The Supercopa is coming just at the right time for Barcelona.
In the last few years, it’s been a special tournament that has served to give the team confidence, heading into the second half of the season.
In 2022, Xavi was just starting as the manager. The club was in turmoil, and even though they lost to Real Madrid 3-2 in the semifinals, it was a fantastic performance that was the beginning of an important turnaround to get the season back on the rails.
A year ago, Barcelona tore apart Real Madrid in the final, taking the trophy with a 3-1 victory.
