The Supercopa of Spain (although it plays very far of Spain) with his format 'final four' has become very thrilling and a true enjoy for the fans. It has remained backwards the party of gone and turn in which the champion of League and the one of Glass of the King confronted to know to the 'supercampeón'. In his third edition (2020, 2021 and 2022), the 'revolution' of the RFEF keeps on being very very received, but does not remove the "unfair "" that it carry it to him a team that in the previous year was second in the First Division or finalist in Glass.

I think that to the organiser interests him that we participate", stood out the midfield player Teutonic. And it does not be missing him reason.

In any case, will live one of the 'Classical' of the Spanish football. The ones of Marcelino will try to defend the title that won does a year against the FC Barcelona in The Cartuja, in a traced back 'epic' against the culés. Will have in in front of a Madrid that has won them twice in less than a month, in LaLiga, and that it wants to rencontrarse with a title after a year in white. The dispute and 'war' will be maximum, of this there are not doubts, and the trophy will carry it to him the one who 'hold' more.
