Real Madrid cruised into the final of the Super Copa de Espana with a 3-1 win over Valencia in Jeddah on Wednesday but all the headlines were stolen by Toni Kroos’ remarkable strike directly from a corner that set Zinedine Zidane’s team on their way.

In the 15th minute of the match, Kroos who was on corner duties for Real Madrid caught Valencia goalkeeper Jaume Domenech napping and sent a curling effort straight into the net.

Domenech who was organising his defence to defend the set-piece was taken aback by the German’s quick thinking as the corner from Kroos had enough swerve on it to beat the Valencia custodian despite his delayed efforts to prevent it from going into the net directly.
