Holiday and/or city trip + football = perfect combination!

At the kick-off of every new football season, different opening matches are played, such as the national cup matches the DFL-Supercup in Germany and the Community Shield in England. A friendly opening match called Joan Gamper Cup is played in Barcelona.

These 1-to-1 matches without a return is mostly played between the previous cup-winner and the league-champion. Because cup matches are always played between two champions, it is a high-level and interesting match. It is also the perfect opportunity to see football players play for their new club after recent transfers.


Haven’t booked a holiday yet or already at the place of destination? See new star Frenkie de Jong and Antoine Griezmann play for FC Barcelona as they take it up against Arsenal in the friendly Joan Gamper Cup.

Or what about a visit to the amazing city of London? At Wembley Stadium the Community Shield match is played between England’s current best and most successful clubs Liverpool and Manchester City.
