With two goals, former Bundesliga player Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (minutes 29 and 51) made a huge contribution to the prestigious success of the financially struggling Catalans, who were even forced to part with their superstar Lionel Messi before the season. National goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen spent a rather uneventful evening in the guest post against totally disappointing hosts. Without injured striker Karim Benzema, the Madrid attack, who this time played in their black shirts for the 120th anniversary, achieved almost nothing.
