Madrid, Spain – Real Madrid dominated possession and created a flurry of scoring chances in the frist half of their Spanish Supercup semifinal against Real Mallorca, but the islanders’ resolute defense held firm, keeping the scoreline at a tense 0-0.

The reigning La liga champions came out firing, with Vinicius Jr. and Karim Benzema leading the attack. Benzema had a golden possibility early on, but his shot sailed just wide of the post.Vinicius Jr. also threatened, weaving through Mallorca’s defense with his trademark flair, but the final touch eluded him.
