Down 0-2 until the 85th minute, the French champions, without Donnarumma and with new player Chevalier, found the equalizer in the final minutes with Kang-in Lee and Gonçalo Ramos, and then won the lottery from the penalty spot thanks to the mistakes of Micky van de Ven and Mathys Tel.

The match report

Tottenham started with determination and, after coming close to taking the lead with Pedro Porro and Palhinha, unlocked the result at 39': Palhinha's shot was awkwardly rejected by Chevalier, and van de Ven intervened on the loose ball to score an empty net goal.

At the beginning of the second half (48'), the Spurs doubled their lead: a cross from Pedro Porro and a header from Cristian Romero, thanks to an ineffective intervention by the Parisian goalkeeper.

When the trophy seemed destined for London, PSG woke up: Ousmane Dembélé took the initiative and at 85' served the ball to Kang-in Lee for the 2-1 goal, with a precise left-footed shot from the edge of the box. At 94', in full recovery, Dembélé crossed again for Gonçalo Ramos, who headed in the equalizer.

The penalties

From the penalty spot, Vitinha missed first, but Chevalier redeemed himself by saving van de Ven's shot. The decisive mistake was made by Mathys Tel, who kicked the ball out. PSG thus lifted the European Super Cup, becoming the first French team in history to win the trophy.
