2014 UEFA Super Cup to be played at Cardiff City Stadium

The Cardiff City Stadium will host the 2014 UEFA Super Cup, the annual match played between the winners of the Champions League and Europa League, in August.

UEFA have selected the Cardiff City Stadium as the venue for the 2014 Super Cup.

The annual match between winners of the Champions League and Europa League will take place in Wales on Tuesday, August 12 2014.

"The Football Association of Wales is delighted that Cardiff will be hosting this year's UEFA Super Cup," Football Association of Wales chief executive Jonathan Ford told reporters.

"This prestigious match features the best teams in Europe, the winners of the Champions League and the Europa League.

"Cardiff has hosted several high-profile sporting events. This however is a first. This will be the first match staged on behalf of UEFA in the Welsh capital. We are sure it will not be the last."

Bayern Munich are the current holders of the Super Cup, having beaten Chelsea on penalties in Prague last year.
