REAL – EINTRACHT FRANKFURT. Real Madrid already wins a trophy in this new season this Wednesday, August 10 thanks to achievements from Alaba and Benzema. Los Merengues win the European Super Cup against Eintracht Frankfurt.
23:10 – The summary of the match
Real Madrid have already won a trophy this season. The Spanish club won the European Super Cup after beating Eintracht Frankfurt (2-0). And yet in the first period, the Merengue could have doubted when Thibaut Courtois had to win in front of Kamada who appeared alone in front of the cages of the Belgian goalkeeper. But as more than two months ago against Liverpool in the Champions League final, the latter repelled all opposing attempts in the first period. And while the debates were balanced, it was the most experienced who took the lead thanks to David Alaba. The Austrian defender benefits from a superb delivery from Casemiro on a corner (37th). And fortunately for the Germans, the break came because the Merengue seemed determined to score a second goal but Benzema lacked precision when volleying a cross from Toni Kroos (41st). The start of the second period was largely reminiscent of the end of the first act dominated by the Merengue. Vinicius and Benzema go at it twice to worry Trapp but the former PSG goalkeeper gives his people a reprieve (55th). Only a reprieve because Karim Benzema has decided to continue the momentum of last season. The Frenchman ends up deceiving Kevin Trapp on a strike with the flat of the full axis foot which deceives the doorman not exempt from any reproach (66th). After that goal, and despite Oliver Glasner’s attacking changes, the Germans struggled to create chances despite the hard-hitting entry of former Nantes player Kolo Muani. Real Madrid are therefore starting their season very strongly by winning their fifth European Super Cup and will be looking to win the other five possible titles this season for them.
