Bayern – Sevilla in the Super Cup – one will lose – sport

The Super Cup between Bayern and Sevilla FC will take place in Budapest on Thursday. Both teams have a career.

One will win or short EWG it was the name of a German-language television quiz show that was particularly popular in the 1980s with cult host Hans-Joachim Kulenkampff. The candidates had to prove themselves in several games in the studio, and in the end one was the big winner.

Champions League winners Bayern Munich and Europa League winners FC Sevilla just have to prove themselves in a match on Thursday at the UEFA Super Cup in Budapest. But even here (only) one will win.

Which brings us to the other topic: someone will lose.

The question of who has to leave the field on Thursday is exciting because they face two teams that seem to have forgotten how to lose. Both Bayern and Sevilla are riding a tremendous wave of success. The numbers are impressive:

• Seville has since February 9, 2020 it is no longer lost. The Spanish stayed on their way to fourth place in the First Division and triumphed in the Europa League 21 games in a row undefeated. There were 12 wins and 9 draws.

• The balance of the is even more impressive Bayern. Team Flick’s latest defeat dates from December 7, 2019 (1: 2 against Gladbach). Since then, Bayern’s triple have won the Bundesliga, DFB Cup and Champions League title and been there 31 games without defeat strung together. There were incredible in those 31 games 30 (!) Siege and a draw (0-0 win against Leipzig). More recently, the Munich team beat FC Schalke 04 8-0 in the first Bundesliga game.

So while Bayern arrived with the big win against Schalke in their luggage, the game in Budapest will be Sevilla’s first serious fight of the new season. However, the Spaniards with the repatriated Ivan Rakitic appear with a broad chest.

By the way: The duel between Bayern Munich and FC Sevilla only existed once. In the CL quarterfinals in 2018, the Germans prevailed 2-1 after going 0-0 in the first leg in Seville.
