Supercopa de Europa

The UEFA Super Cup will be played this afternoon at 1:45 p.m. (Peruvian time) between the teams of Real Madrid and Manchester United, winners of the Champions League and the Europa League, respectively. Both teams promise to give a great match and do their best to win the first title of the season.

It is worth remembering which players have made history in this continental competition as top scorers. The first place is currently held by the Colombian Radamel Falcao who in 2012 scored three goals in a single match wearing the jersey of Atlético de Madrid. That time, the 'colchoneros' won 4-1 against the English Chelsea.

The former River Plate player is not the only one who has scored three goals in the UEFA Super Cup. Stars such as Lionel Messi and Gerd Müller also have that record. Alongside them are the Ukrainian Oleg Blojín, the Dutch Rob Rensenbrink, and the Belgian François Van der Elst.
