Madrid aims for a pre-season treble without Ronaldo and Benzema. Both teams advanced to the final with clean sheets.
Just 24 hours after playing their semi-final games, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid will meet at the Allianz Arena to decide who wins the 2015 Audi Cup trophy. Bayern Munich wants to win it for a third time since its inception in 2009 and Madrid is aiming for its first Audi Cup and third title this pre-season.
Los Merengues will have to find a way to beat the Bavarian side without two of its three most important players. Karim Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo were ruled out of the tournament hours before they played Tottenham on Tuesday.
Gareth Bale did score in the game against his former team, but what the Spurs were able to offer against Rafa Benitez' team may have nothing to do against the power and quality of the German team. While Kiko Casilla was the man in charge of Madrid's goal against Tottenham, today could be Keylor Navas' turn.
The idea of bringing David de Gea to compete of sack any of those two goalkeepers from their spot is still lingering in Madrid's dressing room. Meanwhile, their new coach does not want to talk about the issue, saying that he is happy with what he has and that he doesn't need to talk about players in other teams.
James Rodriguez is also enjoying a good pre-season. He was in charge of opening the scoreboard against Tottenham in the first half. It was his second goal since he joined the club after his vacation due to playing with Colombia in the Copa America.
Bayern Munich wants to defend the title they won in 2013. With the tournament being played at their home turf, there is a big chance that most of the supporters at Allianz Arena will get behind Pep Guardiola's team. They beat AC Milan 3-0 to get into the final round of a tournament that lasts less than 48 hours.
Arturo Vidal is enjoying his first minutes with his new team, after leaving Juventus over the course of the summer. King Arturo did not score in his first game, while he had one shot go over the crossbar and another one hit the post. Vidal was a key player for Juventus when they eliminated Madrid from the Champions League.
Bayern did not suffer too much, specially in the second half, when they were able to increase their lead from 1-0 to 3-0. Milan created a couple of good chances, but they were unlucky to finish them off. Pep Guardiola's team will face the team that knocked him out of the UCL final in 2013, but one that he usually beat while he was the manager of Barcelona.
