The Portuguese started the first leg of the Supercopa de Espana on the bench, but came on after 58 minutes.

At the time, his side was leading 1-0 thanks to an own goal by Gerard Pique. Messi then netted the equaliser from the penalty spot after 77 minutes.

The goal was the Argentine’s 24^th El Clasico goal, extending his own record, but only his 10^th at the Camp Nou.

Ronaldo then put his side back in front with a superb shot from outside of the box. The goal was his 17^th in El Clasico overall but already his 11^th at the Camp Nou.

As a consequence, the 32-year-old has now netted one more goal during El Clasico’s at Barca’s home ground than his bitter rival.

To cap things off, Ronaldo celebrated his goal by taking his shirt off and holding it up in front of the home crowd in similar fashion to Messi’s celebration when the two sides met the last time at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Ronaldo saw a yellow card for his celebration before being sent off minutes later for an alleged dive.

Marco Asensio netted a late goal to give Los Blancos a 3-1 advantage in the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup. The second leg will be played at the Bernabeu on Wednesday, with Ronaldo likely to be suspended.
