Madrid beats Valencia to reach Spanish Super Cup final. MORE:
Francisco “Isco” Alarcón and Luka Modric also scored for Real Madrid as it advanced to Sunday's final against either Barcelona or Atlético Madrid, who will play on Thursday.
Isco added to the lead with a shot from inside the area in the 39th, and Modric sealed the victory with a neat strike with the outside of his right foot into the far corner in the 65th. Madrid's victory came in a less-than-packed King Abdullah Sports City stadium, which seats 62,000. Real Madrid said before the tournament that only about 20 of its fans were expected to make the trip from Madrid to Saudi Arabia, though most of the local crowd was pro-Real Madrid.
Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde acknowledged earlier Wednesday they were playing in Saudi Arabia for the money, saying “football is an industry today. ... That's really why we are here."
