Madrid booked a hard-fought place in the Spanish Super Cup final after beating Atletico Madrid in an eight-goal thriller. Simeone's side broke the deadlock when Hermoso headed home a corner, but Madrid responded with a glance header from Rudiger before Mendy put his side ahead.
The 'Colchoneros' were able to respond before the break through Griezmann, who restored parity with a stunning strike. It looked as though Atletico were going to knock out Madrid when Rudiger pushed the ball into his own net after Kepa failed to clear a cross from the right flank. However, Ancelotti's side managed to send the game into extra time with a late goal from Carvajal, in which Real Madrid ousted the visitors which ended in Savic scoring a late, own goal after deflecting a header from Joselu. Brahim added the icing on the cake in injury time of extra time.
