Barcelona grabbed their first title of the season after thrashing city-rivals Espanyol 3-0 in the second-leg of the Spanish Super Cup on Sunday. A goal from Xavi and a brace from Portuguese international Deco at Nou Camp gave Barcelona a 4-0 aggregate win over the King's Cup winners. Ronaldinho's magic helped stun the visitors with an early opener. The FIFA Player of the Year bedazzled Espanyol defender Sergio Sanchez before sending an inch-perfect cross to Xavi who headed home the opener three minutes into the game. Nine minutes Barcelona were up by two after some brilliant teamwork. Juliano Belletti raced down the right flank after connecting with a deft through pass from Xavi. The Brazilian cut back with a baseline pass to Deco who drilled home the second for Barca. Once again Deco connected with a Belletti cross to add Barcelona's third goal with a brilliant bicycle kick on the hour mark. The win gave Barcelona their second successive Super Cup title and seventh overall, matching the record of rivals Real Madrid.
