Barcelona 2 Shakhtar Donetsk 1 (Uefa Super Cup)




The first half of the Super Cup was a lacklustre affair, Barcelona creating more chances than Shakhtar but unable to find the net. The second half also brought no goals, Zlatan embarrassing himself with a pitiful effort way off target, but the game was spiced up when Leo Messi and Dario Srna clashed head-to-head. Unfortunately the match was forced into extra time, but five minutes from time Messi played a lovely one-two with Pedro Rodriguez who curled home the winner as Barca won their second trophy of the year.
