Current

The Supercopa de España or the Spanish Super Cup is a super cup tournament in Spanish football. Founded in 1982 as a two-team competition, the current version has been contested since 2019–20 by four teams: the winners and runners-up of the Copa del Rey and La Liga. Barcelona are the defending champions, having won a record-extending 14th title in 2023.

History

The current competition has only existed since 1982, but between 1940 and 1953, several other tournaments between the Spanish league champions and the cup winners (then Copa del Generalísimo) were played.

In 1940, it had the name of Copa de Campeones.

It was not played again until 1945, when the Ambassador of Argentina, due to the good relations with the Spanish military government, offered a trophy called Copa de Oro Argentina.

In 1947, the Copa Eva Duarte de Perón was established as an annual tournament, as a tribute to the President of Argentina and his wife, the popular Evita. They were played between September and December, usually as one-match finals.

In 2018, the Supercopa was played for the first time as a single match hosted at a neutral venue. In February 2019, it was announced that the competition would be changed from a two-team format to four teams, which would include a semi-final round.
