The 2024 UEFA Super Cup was the 49th edition of the UEFA Super Cup, an annual football match organised by UEFA and contested by the reigning champions of the top two European club competitions, the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Europa League. It was played at the National Stadium in Warsaw, Poland, on 14 August 2024. It was contested by Spanish club Real Madrid, winners of the 2023–24 UEFA Champions League, and Italian club Atalanta, winners of the 2023–24 UEFA Europa League.

Real Madrid won the match 2–0 for their sixth UEFA Super Cup title.[5] In doing so, they became the most successful club in the competition's history, breaking a three-way tie of five victories each along with Barcelona and Milan.[6]

Host selection

[edit]

The National Stadium in Warsaw, Poland, was selected to host the match at the meeting of the UEFA Executive Committee in Limassol, Cyprus, on 26 September 2023.[7] The stadium was built for the UEFA Euro 2012 tournament in Poland and Ukraine, where it hosted three Group A matches, a quarter-final and a semi-final. It has since hosted the 2015 UEFA Europa League final, as well as being the usual venue for home matches of the Poland national football team. It has a UEFA capacity of 58,274 seats.[8]

Officials

[edit]

On 26 July 2024, UEFA appointed Swiss official Sandro Schärer as referee for the match. Schärer has been a FIFA referee since 2015. He was joined by compatriots Stéphane De Almeida and Jonas Erni as assistant referees, while Mykola Balakin of Ukraine acted as fourth official. Germany's Bastian Dankert had been selected as the video assistant referee (VAR), with Switzerland's Fedayi San and Dankert's fellow countrymen Christian Dingert serving as the assistant VAR officials.[2]

After a goalless first half, in the 59th minute Vinícius Júnior got in on the left and cut-back low from the byline for Federico Valverde to score from close range into an empty net to put Real Madrid into the lead.[9] In the 68th minute, Kylian Mbappé scored on his Real Madrid debut to make it 2–0 when he shot right-footed into the top right corner of the net from twelve yards out after a low pass from Jude Bellingham from the left.[10]
