Barca's new signing from Manchester City Ferran Torres was handed his debut, alongside recalls for Frenkie De Jong and Ronald Araujo while Madrid had just two changes, at the back as Nacho and Dani Carvajal were both recalled.
However, Los Blancos' transitional attack finally yielded a goal in the 25th minute after Vinicius Junior held his composure from Karim Benzema's through ball and planted a strike into the top corner. Benzema eventually found the back of the net 18 minutes before time with a close-range strike from the rebound after shot-stopper Marc-Andre ter Stegen parried Vinicius Junior's shot into his path.
Madrid remained a threat on counter-attacks early in extra-time and Federico Valverde eventually restored their lead eight minutes in with a composed finish in the box after a cut-back by Rodrygo.
