PLAYING THE CHAMPIONS TOE-TO-TOE
Coach Olivier Glasner commented at the press day that they are not afraid to face Real Madrid despite not having started the season in the best way.
"It's never nice to lose a player like that. Of course he will leave us weaker, but if we think about last year, there was a period when he didn't want to play and then he came back to the service of the team. I told him he should go out as a hero and he's going out now as a hero," Glasner stressed.
KNOW THEY HAVE IMPROVED THEIR SQUAD
Madrid's successful coach, Carlo Ancelotti, said in a conference before the start of the match that the squad has improved compared to last season due to the additions that came in during the summer.
"The squad has improved compared to last year. We are going to compete and fight," he told the press conference. "We have signed two players who have improved the physical and technical quality of the team. We know each other better. The alchemy between youth and veterans was the key to last year's success. Rüdiger and Tchouaméni bring quality and physicality," he told the media.

Seeking the throne
One more season and with it one more competition in which Real Madrid becomes the rival to beat and the aspirant to win all the titles they dispute throughout the campaign. Real Madrid won a Champions League that will go down in history as the tournament of comebacks because in all the knockout rounds the Spanish team was on the verge of the knockout and in the delirium of the matches Karim Benzema and company brought out the caste and Madrid pride to turn around the conditions of the matches and in the end, as history dictates, the champion team ended up being Real Madrid who lifted the cup in Paris to a loud cry of Hala Madrid!
To surprise the world
Frankfurt of Germany left the world speechless last season as they became the winners of the UEFA Europa League without being the favorites to win the title where they left Barcelona in the way giving a splendid match at the Camp Nou with the already known invasion of the German eagles that made Frankfurt feel like home and also leaving out one of the strongest opponents like West Ham that was giving an incredible competition without having known defeat in all its phases so that finally in the final they will take the crown to Germany. Now, with the same impetus and passion that characterized them, they will seek to conquer the UEFA Super Cup and knock out Real Madrid, denting the crown in the process.
Who dominates Europe?

On this occasion, it is Frankfurt who will face Real Madrid in this match, both teams share the characteristic of having dazzled the world after having conquered their respective competitions leaving the spectators astonished in each match, demonstrating the value of their club and the importance they have in history.
