The UEFA Super Cup will be played between Real Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt at the crack of dawn on Thursday (11th). Once the Galacticos have won the title, coach Antonio Anzilotti will surpass Pep Guardiola as the first ever four-time winner at the helm.
Last season, Anzalotti helped Real Madrid win the La Liga and UEFA Champions League double, and he was not only the first coach to win the top five leagues in Europe, but also the first UEFA Champions League manager to lead his team to win the title four times. In the upcoming UEFA Super Cup, "Fat An" is expected to make another brilliant performance.
Anzalotti won the UEFA Super Cup twice as AC Milan coach in 2003 and 2007, and won it again as Real Madrid coach in 2014. That's the same as Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola, who has won the UEFA Super Cup trophy three times as a manager. This time, with a win for Real Madrid, Anzilotti will be crowned "King of the UEFA Super League". "Fat An" also said that the team has been adjusted to the best condition and is ready to fight for the title.
It is worth mentioning that Real Madrid has won the UEFA Super Cup four times in its history, only once after Barcelona and AC Milan. That is to say, if this win, the "Galactic Fleet" will become the third team after these two teams to win the UEFA Super Cup five times.
