Audi Cup features four matches with top-flight soccer clubs

Four big names in international soccer will be meeting at the Munich Allianz Arena on 4^th and 5^th August at the event billed as 'In close touch with the best'. The teams that have been confirmed to date are FC Bayern Munchen and Real Madrid CF. 

Held at two-year intervals, the Audi Cup has since become established as one of the most important tournaments in preparation of the European soccer season. Real Madrid CF will be competing in Munich under the banner of the four rings for the first time. 

The time-tested format of the Audi Cup has remained unchanged. On Tuesday, 4^th August, the two semi-final meetings will be held. The losers of these matches will be playing for third place on Wednesday, 5^th August, before the winners meet in the final. The winners' well-deserved reward: the 60-centimetre tall aluminum trophy designed by Audi.

Arjen Robben, Mario Gotze, Manuel Neuer, Toni Kroos, Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema, Sergio Ramos or Iker Casillas - these are just some of the big names in the participants' squads that will be breathing life into the 'In close touch with the best' motto of the Audi Cup again this year.
