"Florentino congratulated me and we greeted each other cordially before the match,"
"relations with Real Madrid are broken and not good."
"I'm very happy. Our team puts on a show like today and is very generous. We say we are a big family and that's how it is,"
"We were in a better position, but in a final, there are no favourites. We started well by scoring, then they equalised and it can get complicated, but the team overcame it."
Joan Laporta watched the Super Cup final from the VIP box and met Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez in a formal pre-match exchange that included greetings, gift swapping and post-match congratulations. Laporta characterized the interaction as strictly professional despite previously saying relations with Real Madrid were broken. Barcelona won a second consecutive Super Cup title, with Laporta praising the squad's attitude, generosity and unity and calling coaching, medical and recovery staff the architects of success. Laporta acknowledged the final's tension and nerves, noted that finals have no favourites, and praised the competitive, interesting nature of the match.
