The participants of the UEFA Super Cup have been determined. Two Italian coaches will meet

Yesterday, in the Champions League final, Real Madrid triumphed over Borussia Dortmund with a 2-0 victory.

This win secured Real Madrid their fifteenth Champions League title and granted them the opportunity to compete for another trophy.

On August 14, at the National Stadium in Warsaw, the newly crowned Champions League winners will face the Europa League champions of this season, Atalanta.

For Real Madrid, this match represents a chance to claim their fourth trophy of the current season. Besides their Champions League victory, they have also won the La Liga title and the Spanish Super Cup.

Los Blancos already boast five UEFA Super Cups, all won in this century (2002, 2014, 2016, 2017, 2022).

Atalanta, on the other hand, will be participating in the UEFA Super Cup for the first time. Their Europa League victory marks their first international trophy, having previously reached the quarterfinals of both the Champions League and the UEFA Cup.

The Super Cup match will feature a clash of two Italian managers: Carlo Ancelotti will go head-to-head against Gian Piero Gasperini. Of course, this is assuming Gasperini remains with Atalanta, as many clubs have shown interest in him following their Europa League victory.

It's worth noting that these managers have been rivals since their playing days in various Italian teams and have faced each other as coaches of Italian clubs in the 2000s and late 2010s.

Additionally, the winner of the third most prestigious European club tournament, the Conference League, was Greek side Olympiacos.
