Raphinha scored twice as Barcelona beat Real Madrid 3-2 in an enthralling Clásico on Sunday to retain the Spanish Supercopa in Saudi Arabia.

The Brazilian struck the winner in the 73rd minute as Barça celebrated a third successive final victory over Madrid under Hansi Flick, following on from last season's Supercopa and Copa del Rey successes.

Heading into the final 20 minutes, the tie had been delicately poised following a crazy first half, which yielded three stoppage-time goals after Raphinha's opener in the 36th minute.
