Real beat Athletic Bilbao 2-0 on Sunday in Saudi Arabia to claim their 12th Super Cup triumph.

Carlo Ancelotti’s side took the lead against Bilbao in the 38th minute through Modric who rifled the ball home after great work from Brazilian trickster Rodrygo The Sun reports.

Benzema doubled Madrid's lead seven minutes after the break from the penalty spot following VAR intervention after Yeray Alvarez was judged to have handled the ball.

Real Madrid were reduced to ten men three minutes from time after Eder Militao was sent off for handball on the goal line.

But goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois ensured he would have a clean sheet after he brilliantly stopped Raul Garcia's penalty kick with his left foot.

However, the highlight of Sunday’s victory has been the gloomy face paraded by former Chelsea star Eden Hazard.

Fans quickly reacted to the Belgian’s unhappy mood on social media as Real Madrid players celebrated winning their first silverware for the season.

The 31-year-old enjoyed a legendary seven-year spell at Chelsea, winning the two Premier League titles and two Europa Leagues.

Hazard joined Real in 2019, but has failed to make an impression.

His nightmare spell in Spain has been plagued with injuries, playing just 59 games in all competitions since his £89 million transfer.

Former Arsenal Star Confesses He Moved to Barcelona Because Of The Money

The Cameroonian was bought to the Gunners in 2006 from then-Ligue 1 outfit Bastia and made a total of 133 appearances for Arsenal scoring a total of just seven goals.
