Barcelona defender Pau Cubarsi says he’s hoping to face Real Madrid in the final of the Spanish Super Cup after helping his team book their place in Sunday’s showpiece.

Cubarsi says Barcelona are ready for anyone but admits another Clasico would be a special game.
”Everyone wants a Clásico, but whoever comes, we are going to go for it. Tomorrow I won’t take sides, I’ll stay calm and recover,” he told Movistar.
Cubarsi also had praise for Barca’s attackers after goals from Ferran Torres, Fermin Lopez, Roony Bardghji and Raphinha secured a big win against the Basques.
“Those at the top are very plugged in. They are at a spectacular level and help the whole team. We’ve had a good run of clean sheets and it’s very important. We have to follow this path,” he added.
“When you see that you are 5-0 you see that there is a big difference, but we don’t have to put our foot down because it helps us for the final.”
Barcelona are aiming to retain their Super Cup title in Saudi Arabia and faced Real Madrid in last season’s final, running out 5-2 winners.
