Details
The French side opened the scoring in the 20th minute — Khvicha Kvaratskhelia fired a powerful shot after a quick attack. "Aston Villa" equalized before halftime through Brian Majo, who became the youngest goalscorer in UEFA Super Cup history.
At the start of the second half, PSG regained the lead. Désiré Doué scored after an incident that initially raised doubts over a possible offside. After reviewing VAR, the referee confirmed the goal.
In the end, PSG held on for a 2:1 victory and won the UEFA Super Cup for the second consecutive time. Last year, the French club defeated "Tottenham" in the final.
Thus, PSG became the third team in UEFA Super Cup history to win the trophy two years in a row. Previously, only "Milan" in 1989–1990 and Madrid's "Real" in 2016–2017 had achieved this.
