All smiles and sportsmanly between the managers
The Real Madrid and FC Barcelona managers met this Saturday at the venue for the final, Al-Awwal Park in Riyadh.
For the final of the Spanish Super Cup, the latest Clasico. Riyadh is properly decked out for Real Madrid-FC Barcelona and the atmosphere at Al-Awwal Park will be sensational to witness, as is normal for the biggest match in world football. In 2022 the trophy went to The Whites and in 2023 it went to the Catalans, but who will win in 2024?
This Saturday, as is customary, the coaches posed with the trophy on the eve of the final. Carlo Ancelotti and Xavi Hernández confirmed the mutual respect and good relationship they share during the photo session, a pleasant encounter in which both wished each other luck for the duel and chatted, showing absolute sportsmanship.
On Sunday, at 8pm (10pm Saudi time), they brush shoulders once again, but this time with a title at stake. And it's not just any title, it's the Spanish Super Cup, a tournament that has regained prestige with this electric format that nobody can get enough of.
THE PRESS CONFERENCES:
Ancelotti: "El Clásico means everything"
Xavi: "I'm really excited about the final"
