For once there will be no Spanish club taking part in the European Super Cup, although there will be a fascinating clash between two old rivals as ex Barça & Real Madrid managers Pep Guardiola and José Mourinho lead their new clubs Bayern Munich (Champions League winners) and Chelsea (Europa League winners) in to this match in Mónaco. Spanish presence will also be completed by Javi Martínez, Thiago, Fernando Torres, Mata and Azpilicueta. (01.08.13)
Pep Guardiola's Bayern Munich beat José Mourinho's Chelsea in a thrilling match which went down to the wire. Fernando Torres put the Premier League side ahead, and although European player of the year Ribéry equalized, Hazard put Chelsea ahead in extra time. Subsitute Javi Martínez made it all square though in the last minute, and Neuer saved Lukaku's last penalty to give the Germans the victory in the shoot-out. (30.08.13)
