Spanish and European champions Real Madrid retained the Uefa Super Cup with a 2 - 1 victory against a outclassed Manchester United.
Real Madrid dominated from the start and led when Casemiro In the 24th minute - who earlier hit the bar - slid in a half volley.
They doubled their lead when Isco calmly slotted in from eight yards after a neat one-two with
Gareth Bale In the 52th minute, who started ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Manchester United new striker Romelu Lukaku scored for two to one In the 62nd minute.
The Europa League winners were given encouragement by Lukaku's strike, despite rarely threatening
the Madrid goal in the previous hour, and could have scored a barely deserved equaliser through half-time substitute Rashford with nine minutes left but Jose Mourinho's side were unable to create another clear-cut chance until the end of the match at the Philip II Arena. Skopje, Macedonia.
