Barcelona cruised into Sunday’s Supercopa final with a thumping win in Saudi Arabia.
Barca hit four goals in 16 first-half minutes to thrash Athletic and set up a showdown against either Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid.
Ferran Torres hit the opener with Fermin Lopez, Roony Bardghji and Raphinha all chipping in before the break.
Raphinha hit the fifth early in the second half to cap off a stunning performance.
Barcelona were ahead in the 22nd minute through Torres, taking an awkward pass that appeared to be a shot from Fermin, and his fine first touch allowed him to fire into the back of the net from seven yards.
It was 2-0 on the half-hour mark when Raphinha reached the byline and his low cross was brilliantly turned in by Fermin.
Fermin then made it a hat-trick of goal contributions when he turned provider again for Bardghji on 34 minutes, though it was a simple pass into the latter, who twisted and turned in the box before firing low into the net.
Barcelona were rampant at this stage and they added a fourth through Raphinha when he burst into the box and blasted into the roof of the net.
The Brazilian netted his second on 52 minutes as Bilbao failed to clear a ball into the penalty area, and Raphinha fired home.
