2014

The 2014 match was the first ever Supercopa de Catalunya, after the CFC (Catalan Football Federation) changed the format for the Copa Catalunya. Second and third division clubs (as well as the winner of the Catalan First Division) were able to participate in the old tournament, while Barcelona and Espanyol played this one-off match for the Super Cup.^[9]

Gerard Piqué opened the scoring for Barcelona after heading in Luis Suárez's cross in the 15th minute. Despite dominating the game from start to finish, Barcelona were not able to add to Piqué's goal and Espanyol eventually equalised through a perfectly taken free kick from Anaitz Arbilla. The game then went to a penalty shootout, which Barcelona won 4-2: Xavi Hernández, Alen Halilović, Álex Grimaldo and Ivan Rakitić all scored, while Jordi Masip saved Arbilla's penalty and Abraham González missed for Espanyol.^[10][11]
