This was the last Super Cup to be played at the Stade Louis II, which had hosted the match since 1998, as future editions began to be hosted at different venues, starting with the 2013 edition, which was played at Eden Arena in Prague.[6]

Atlético Madrid won 4–1 to claim their second UEFA Super Cup.[1] Radamel Falcao scored a first-half hat-trick and Miranda added a fourth for Atlético on the hour mark, before Gary Cahill scored a consolation goal for Chelsea in the 75th minute.

Chelsea and Atlético distributed their tickets directly to their fans.
