Real Madrid dominated play in the first leg of the 2011 Supercopa where the crisp passing shots usually seen from Barcelona was not as effective. However, what the team lacked in cohesiveness, the individual players’ skills patched up.
After Real Madrid’s Mesut Oezil opened the scoring in the 13th minute, Barcelona’s superstars David Villa and Lionel Messi answered back to the frustration of the Madrid fans. But the Blancos would not be denied. In the second half, Xabi Alonso fired a low shot beyond goalkeeper Victor Valdes in the 54th minute to equalize.
