The 2024 Johan Cruyff Shield was the 28th edition of the Johan Cruyff Shield (Dutch: Johan Cruijff Schaal), an annual Dutch association football match contested by the winners of the previous season's Eredivisie and KNVB Cup. It was played at the Philips Stadion in Eindhoven on 4 August 2024, and featured the 2023–24 Eredivisie champions PSV Eindhoven and the 2023–24 KNVB Cup winners Feyenoord.

Background

See main article: 2023–24 PSV Eindhoven season and 2023–24 Feyenoord season.

PSV qualified for the Johan Cruyff Shield as champions of the 2023–24 Eredivisie with 91 points, their most ever in a single Eredivisie season, finishing nine points clear of second-placed Feyenoord. Feyenoord qualified for the Johan Cruyff Shield as winners of the 2023–24 KNVB Cup, beating N.E.C. in the final and PSV in the round of 16. Since the Johan Cruyff Shield was played in the stadium of the Eredivisie champions, the Philips Stadion hosted the match for a second time, previously doing so in 2018.

The contest was the first match in charge of Feyenoord for new head coach Brian Priske. Peter Bosz managed PSV in the Johan Cruyff Shield for a second consecutive year. On 29 July 2024, Jeroen Manschot was appointed as referee for the Johan Cruyff Shield for the first time.[1]
