Real Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao with an aggregate score of 8-1 to win their fourth championship trophy of the year, and was dubbed "the most suspenseless champion" by the media.

At the same time, Real Madrid have once again defended their Copa del Rey title, marking the third consecutive year they have won the Copa del Rey.

According to the rules of the Copa del Rey, once a team wins the Copa del Rey for three consecutive years, they will keep the trophy in perpetuity.

In the long history of the Copa del Rey, Real Madrid was the first to do so, and they won the Copa del Rey four years in a row between 1905 and 1908, becoming the first team to keep the Copa del Rey permanently.

This was followed by Athletic Bilbao, who won the Copa del Rey three years in a row from 1941 to 1943 and the Copa del Rey four years in 1930 to 1933.

Barcelona became the third Spanish team to hold the Copa del Rey on a permanent basis, having won the Copa del Rey three years in a row from 1951 to 1953.

Real Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao tonight to become only the second team after Athletic Bilbao to retain the Copa del Rey twice permanently!

At the end of the match, the captain received the glittering Copa del Rey from King Juan Carlos I of Spain.

When he yelled at the fans, "We are the champions!" The Bernabeu was completely boiling.

The reporter in the stadium seized the gap to interview Chen Fan, Chen Fan said to the reporter excitedly: "In history, a team has won the Copa del Rey four times in a row, and I hope Real Madrid can break the record it has set and win the Copa del Rey for five consecutive years!" ”

The Catalan media present sneered in their hearts, Chen, you are too confident, where did you put Barcelona?

Will Barcelona give you the chance to set this record?

Two years later, when Real Madrid did win the Copa del Rey for the fifth year in a row, the Catalan journalist had to leave the stadium in disgrace......

The next day, the newspaper commented: "Athletic Bilbao, which has a great record in the Copa del Rey, lost 1-8 at the feet of Real Madrid, which only shows that this Real Madrid team is too strong now, and they are building their own dynasty!" ”

Barcelona's mouthpiece World Sports commented: "Barcelona achieved an unprecedented six crowns in 08, Real Madrid have only won four trophies now, they have nothing to be proud of, Atletico Madrid will not let them win the UEFA Super Cup easily!" ”

The remark sparked a war of words between Real Madrid and Barcelona fans, with Real Madrid believing their side would be able to beat their local rivals Atletico Madrid and claim their fifth trophy of the year.

And Barcelona fans believe that Atletico Madrid will not let Real Madrid get their way, and Atletico Madrid will successfully block Real Madrid.

Time passed quickly in a war of words between fans on both sides, and in the blink of an eye, it was the last day of August, and the two Madrid teams arrived in Monaco one after another.

In an interview at the airport, Chen Fan made a bold statement: "No one can stop Real Madrid from winning the UEFA Super Cup, although Atletico Madrid is a respectable opponent, but they can't stop Real Madrid!" ”

"It's my first time playing in the UEFA Super Cup and I'm not going to watch a trophy lifted!"

The reporters suddenly remembered that although Chen Fan won the Champions League for two consecutive years, he did not participate in the European Super Cup before this.

This time last year, he left Arsenal for Real Madrid, thus also disqualifying for the UEFA Super Cup.

Cristiano Ronaldo said: "There is nothing to say, Real Madrid will win their fifth trophy of the year! ”

Ancelotti said: "Simeone's team is very strong and tenacious, they are an opponent to respect. For me, it was the first real test since taking over Real Madrid! ”

Athletic Bilbao didn't know if they would vomit blood after hearing him say this.

Atletico Madrid's Europa League triumph last season Falcao said in an interview with reporters: "Real Madrid are very strong and they are very eager to beat us and win the Super Cup, but we will not let them get their way! ”

Atletico boss Simeone said: "We will use a pressing style of play to disrupt Real Madrid's attacking rhythm, although we all know that Real Madrid's quick counter-attacks are very characteristic, but I am confident that they can contain that! ”

On December 27 last year, Simeone replaced Manzano, who was sacked due to a bad game, and became the manager of his old club Atletico Madrid.

The Sheets Army's result at that time was to advance to the round of 32 in the Europa League, and only won five wins, four draws and seven losses in the sixteen rounds of La Liga, ranking tenth in the standings.

After Simeone took over, he transformed Atletico Madrid step by step, leading the team to nine consecutive victories in the Europa League, and finally defeated Athletic Bilbao with a score of 3-0 in the final to win the championship.

The Argentines have brought a lot of change to Atletico, injecting an "iron will" into this team and making them a formidable team.

As soon as the two teams arrived in Monaco, there was a war of words.
