🔗 Share this article PSG Defeats Marseille in a Shootout to Secure Trophee des Champions Super Cup in the Middle East. The Parisian club has now claimed the season-opening cup on fourteen separate occasions. Paris Saint-Germain needed a stoppage-time equaliser followed by a perfect spot-kick decider to get past Marseille in Kuwait and capture a fourth straight French Super Cup victory. The European champions seemed to be sailing towards a comfortable win in the match featuring the French league winners and the Coupe de France winners after the French winger opened the scoring in the opening stages. Yet, the southern French side fired twice in the closing moments to take a shock advantage. Initially, Mason Greenwood converted from the spot-kick, before Willian Pacho inadvertently directed the ball into his own net for an own goal. In a remarkable turn of fortune, the Portuguese striker snatched a vital leveler in the final seconds to send the contest into a deciding shootout. The Parisian shot-stopper Lucas Chevalier then stood as the key figure, stopping decisive kicks from Matt O'Riley and Traore. In the shootout, Ramos, Vitinha, Nuno Mendes, and Desire Doue all converted with composure for Paris Saint-Germain to complete a 4-1 shootout victory. The record winners Paris Saint-Germain, who met last season's Ligue 1 runners-up Marseille after completing a league and cup double, have now won this trophy for the twelfth time in the last thirteen seasons.
