Vinicius Junior made history by scoring three goals for Real Madrid against Barcelona in the opening 39 minutes of Sunday's Supercopa de Espana final.

Vinicius opened the scoring at Saudi Arabia's King Saud University Stadium in the sixth minute when he raced on a through pass from Jude Bellingham before dribbling around Barca keeper Inaki Pena and shooting into the net from eight yards.

With game being played at the home of Al Nassr, Vinicius decided to celebrate his early strike by performing Cristiano Ronaldo's famous 'SIU' routine.

Vinicius scored again to make it 2-0 less than than three minutes later with a slick sliding finish after fellow Brazilian Rodrygo had exposed Barca's high defensive line.

Barca hit back in the 33rd minute when Robert Lewandowski netted his second goal in four days.

But Vinicius restored Madrid's two goal lead with a penalty kick in the 39th minute. He had won the spot-kick himself when he was fouled by Ronald Araujo.

Vinicius is now the first Brazilian player to score a hat-trick against Barcelona for Real Madrid.

He is also the first player to score a Clasico hat-trick in the Supercopa de Espana.
