Casemiro was the best performer on the night. Unlike the Champions League final, he was relatively undisturbed, only coming in to keep out a handful of attempts from the reigning Europa League winners. His movements off the ball helped to create some goalscoring opportunities for Los Merengues, and defensively he was decent. Kroos had one of his best performances of the year. Inspired by David Alaba and Karim Benzema, Madrid clinched the first trophy of the new season in a 2-0 victory. After the half-hour mark, his positioning improved, and the chances awarded to the Germans naturally decreased. Toni Kroos and Luka Modric complete the Bermuda Triangle in the middle of the park. Thibaut Courtois starts in goal for Los Blancos, while David Alaba and Eder Militao guard him as the centre-backs.

Carlo Ancelotti lines up without Real Madrid's new signings for the UEFA Super Cup clash with Eintracht Frankfurt.

That XI lined up both against Liverpool in Paris and in the 2-0 friendly win over Juventus in their final pre-Super Cup friendly. As predicted, Ancelotti has gone with the exact same team that started against Liverpool in the Champions League final when Los Blancos step out in Finland tonight. Antonio Rudiger and Aurelien Tchouameni are competing for spots in the starting XI with the Spanish side’s stars who lifted both the LaLiga and Champions League trophies last season.

Real Madrid are reliant on the presence of talismanic forward Karim Benzema to score goals, and their preseason matches were proof. Can Eintracht Frankfurt provide enough firepower to keep up with the high-flying Real Madrid machine? 14th min: Chance, Frankfurt! The first real test of the match for either goalkeeper, and Thibaut Courtois is up to the task! Carlo Ancelotti has developed a consistent starting lineup at Real Madrid over the last year, and it's unlikely that will change for this match. Congrats to Karim Benzema, Vinicius Jr, and Ansgar Knauff! All three are in the starting lineup for today's match. That resulted in the opening goal, to which Frankfurt failed to respond. 33rd min: Finally, Madrid with a significant spell of attacking possession thanks to brilliant one-touch passing that carves the Frankfurt midfield up. Frankfurt could bring on new man Mario Gotze as an attacking reinforcement, but Daichi Kamada played well in the first half and it would be harsh to see him off so soon. 49th min: Sebastian Rode beautifully weaves through the Real Madrid midfield, but an eventual feed to Rafael Borre is out of reach. Frankfurt showing some signs of frustration as the referee blows his whistle for fouls in the other direction. 75th min: Frankfurt have a break down the right with Muani, but Casemiro defends spectacularly and ends the chance.
