The Spanish team of Real Madrid took home the UEFA Super Cup at Helsinki’s Olympic Stadium, after beating German rival Eintracht Frankfurt. 

French forward Karim Benzema became the club’s second-highest all-time scorer as he brought the team to victory in the 65th minute, after combining his skills with Brazilian teammate Vinicius Junior to score the winning goal.

Eintracht Frankfurt, however, put up a good game after they came into the match following a 6-1 Bundesliga win over Bayern Munich during the weekend.

Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti praised Benzema as a team leader, adding: “If we’re here it’s largely due to his merits, he scored a lot of goals, he finished the season well, he scored a goal today and now he’s going for the Ballon d’Or award”. 

The new summer additions to the club, Aurelien Tchouameni, and Antonio Rudiger, were among those introduced from the bench for their formal debuts.
