KROOS SHINES,JAMES RODRIGUEZ FAILS AT UEFA SUPER CUP

In his first game for Real Madrid, Toni Kroos won a trophy. In the European Super Cup, Kroos helped drive Madrid towards a win against Sevilla in Cardiff, Wales. Both the goals came from Cristiano Ronaldo, one on the half hour mark and one shortly after half time. Kroos' international teammate and recent World Cup winner Sami Khedira wasn't even on the bench for Real Madrid as the rumours around his departure continue to grow.




Alongside Kroos, who ended up retaining a trophy he won last year, was Madrid's other summer expense , James Rodriguez. The Colombian failed to hit the same heights as he did at the World Cup in Brazil earlier on in the year, but Kroos appeared to slip straight into the team's midfield. He covered the most distance of all Madrid players,just under 12km , and was constantly involved in possession retention. The quality of his set-pieces also didn't disappoint and, after only five training sessions, the midfielder looks more than up to speed with his new club's system. He did pick up a yellow in the second half for a late tackle though.
 Champions League winners Real Madrid beat Europa League winners Sevilla FC to win the UEFA Super Cup. Toni Kroos put in a good performance in his debut for the club.
