JAKARTA - Eintracht Frankfurt coach Oliver Glasner is aiming to ruin Real Madrid's chances of winning their first trophy before opening the 2022/2023 season.
Eintracht and Madrid will meet in the final of the European Super Cup at the Olympic Stadium in Helsinki, Finland, on Thursday, August 11 at 02.00 WIB.
"On Wednesday (Thursday morning) we have the opportunity to do better against an equally strong opponent," said Frankfurt coach Glasner.
Glasner's side won the Europa League last season after beating Glasgow Ranger in the final. However, starting this season with results that are not at all satisfactory.
They managed to beat second division club Magdeburg 4-0 in the first round of the German Cup. However, they immediately lost 1-6 at home when they hosted Bayern Munich in the first week of the German Bundesliga on Saturday.
However, Glasner is optimistic that his team can rise and provide resistance to Los Blancos. He believes his team can do that after ending the European trophy drought last season.
"Sometimes getting a slap in the face is good. So not everyone thinks things will continue like last season," he said.
Madrid won the European Champions League last season after beating Liverpool in the final. It was their 14th trophy in the history of the competition.
The meeting with Eintracht will be the first competitive meeting between the two teams since the 1960 European Cup final, when Los Blancos came out victorious to take home their fifth successive European title.
Madrid will be chasing a fifth European Super Cup title or their first since 2017. Meanwhile, this is the first appearance for Eintracht Frankfurt.
