Raphinha’s top decisive goal

The spanish super cup final match remained closely contested in the second half, but Raphinha scored the decisive goal in the 73rd minute. Despite slipping slightly while taking the shot from the edge of the box, his ball deflected off a defender, deceiving goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois and finding the back of the net. This gave Barcelona a 3-2 lead. Raphinha has now scored seven goals in five El Clásico matches against Real Madrid.
