Marco Asensio and Karim Benzema scored brilliant first-half goals as Real Madrid beat Barcelona 2-0 on the night to register a resounding 5-1 aggregate Supercopa win.

Zinedine Zidane's side, comfortable 3-1 first-leg winners on Sunday, put Cristiano Ronaldo's five-game ban behind them by out-playing their arch-rivals again as moments of magic from Asensio and Benzema put them out of sight.

Asensio's superb, swerving early strike set the tone at the Bernabeu and Benzema added a second six minutes before half-time to leave a dispirited Barca staring at a heavy defeat.

It’s a big game for?

Gareth Bale. The Welshman can expect to be brought back into the fray following Ronaldo’s five-match ban and now has the chance to prove his worth to manager Zinedine Zidane. In light of Isco’s sublime form in recent months, questions have been raised over Bale’s place in Real’s starting XI but this can be his big moment to shine in Ronaldo’s absence.

59' - Luis Suarez glances a header off a Nelson Semedo cross but the ball is easily gathered by Keylor Navas.

Barcelona have looked far more threatening since returning to a more familiar formation with a back four.

62' - Casemiro replaces Mateo Kovacic for Real Madrid.

64' - Barca come close to scoring again and this time it's Sergi Roberto, who just lacks the pace to get on the end of a Jordi Alba cross from six yards out.

66' - A clumsy challenge on Nelson Semedo by Sergio Ramos gives Barcelona a free-kick in a threatening position on the right wing. From it Lionel Messi finds Luis Suarez but the Uruguayan's header at the far post goes wide.

71' - Luis Suarez sits Sergio Ramos down with a lovely dummy before threading a pass through to Sergi Roberto. With only the goalkeeper to beat Roberto stabs a shot straight at Keylor Navas.

The ball eventually breaks to Lionel Messi, who sees his long-range shot palmed out to Luis Suarez - but the Uruguayan can't convert as his diving header hits the post and goes behind for a goal kick.

74' - Jordi Alba finds Samuel Umtiti in the box but the Frenchman's shot is blocked before Lionel Messi's right-footed effort sails harmlessly high and wide.

75' - Theo Hernandez replaces Marco Asensio for Real Madrid, while Gerard Deulofeu is on for Barcelona in place of Andre Gomes.

This happened a little earlier tonight. It was either hilarious or embarrassing, depending on what you find funny. 

I reckon it's a bit of both.
