Real Madrid have not, yet, rounded off their pre-season. Carlo Ancelottis team do not start their LaLiga campaign until Sunday, when they take on Almeria.Yet at the Helsinki Olympic Stadium, the Champions League holders picked up where they left off just over two months ago with Avery Bradley Jersey European glory.A 14th European crown came their way in Paris back in May, when Vinicius Juniors goal combined with Thibaut Courtois heroics saw off Liverpool.And on a comfortable summers nightin Finland on Wednesday, Madrids a sortment of superstars claimed the clubs fifth Super Cup with a 2-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt, as Ancelottis decision to stick with the team that won at the Stade de France was repaid in full. Eintracht, who defeated Rangers to win the Europa League last term, performed admirably, but shorn of Juventus-bound talisman Filip Kostic, the Bundesliga side could not cope with the power and quality at Madrids disposal.Not that it would have definitely been any different with Kostic in the team, as this was a game won mostly in midfield, that is where Madrid exerted their Los Angeles Clippers Jersey dominance. Though on the occasions when Eintracht did threaten, particularly in the opening 30 minutes when Courtois made two impre sive stops, it would be easy to imagine Kostic, who crafted 420 chances, provided 56 a sists and scored 30 goals acro s 167 appearances for the club after joining from Hamburg in 2018, would have helped their cause.In a pre-match news conference on Tuesday, Luka Modric 37 next month was asked if he planned on asking Ancelotti to manage his minutes with the mid-season World Cup in mind.I speak to the coach every day, but not about that. The coach knows I like playing and I feel better when I play, Modric replied. Im feeling good, available to the team to give my all to help the team in every way. The World Cup doesnt change anything for me.Karim Benzema, who scored Los Blancos second to become Madrids outright second leading goalscorer after Cristiano Ronaldo, added: Age does not come into it.Benzemas statement rang true. Madrids starting midfield Rodney McGruder Jersey three of Modric, Toni Kroos and Casemiro had a combined age of 98, yet surely covered every blade of gra s between them, both on and off the ball.Having spent much of the opening stages looking to drop into space and ping searching diagonals out to Vinicius Junior, who along with Federico Valverde and Eder Militao adds the effervescence of youth to the starting XI, Modric grew into the game as it wore on, finding the pockets of space only he can.The Croatians mercurial talents were on full show early in the second half, after David Alaba had put Madrid ahead his tap-in having been teed up by a combination of Benzema and Casemiro.In the space of five minutes, Modric linked up exquisitely with Benzema to find Ferland Mendy and create a chance for Vinicius Junior to test Kevin Trapp, who was well beaten from the next opportunity Modric teed up Casemiro rattling the cro sbar from the edge of the box.Modrics race was run after Benzema made it 2-0 with his 324th Madrid goal (only Cristiano Ronaldo has scored more), and the playmaker headed for the bench having completed 53 of 57 pa ses (93 per cent), with two of those leading directly to opportunities, though those statistics do not tell the whole story. He was simply spellbinding at times, deft flicks and quick feet Patrick Beverley Jersey toying with Frankfurts hopes and dreams.And what of Casemiro? His tally of nine tackles led the game, with a sliding challenge on Jesper Lindstrom in the 51st minute a highlight.Kroos, as Kroos does, went about his busine s efficiently, without breaking stride. He strolled off with five minutes remaining, making way for big-money signing Aurelien Tchouameni having had 120 touches, completed 97 pa ses and gained po se sion nine times, second only to UEFAs man of the match Casemiro (10).Ancelotti, who has now won the Super Cup a record four times after previous succe s with Madrid (2014) and Milan (2003, 2007), was able to change things up late on, with Antonio Rudiger joining Tchouameni for a competitive debut, but 34-year-old Wesley Johnson Jersey Benzema who lasted the duration.Benzemas goal came from a familiar source. Vinicius found space down the left channel, drilled in a cro s and his partner in crime was there to finish it off. The Brazil forward has now a sisted Madrids number nine 16 times.It was he, as Madrids new club captain following Marcelos departure, who lifted the trophy. If this evidence, with a team still rounding off their preparations, is anything to go by, it will not be the last piece of silverware he lifts this season.
