Paris Saint-Germain scored twice in the last 10 minutes before defeating the Tottenham Hotspur for penalties to lift the UEFA Super Cup for the first time in the history of the club.
Micky Van Ven and the new captain of the club Cristian Romero had given Tottenham an impressive two goals to Bluedem Stadium in Udine, Italy, but the winners of the Luis Enrique Champions League returned to the courtesy of late goals of Lee Kang-in and Goncalo Ramos’ substitutes.
The Parisians came out victorious in the penalty shootout to further afford their growing rule in European football.
Meanwhile, for the North -Londonians, he defeated the victory jaws. But Spurs supporters can take comfort from a largely insured screen and risk avoided; In the departure of Thomas Frank, going on foot with the winners of the Champions League last season.
The Danish manager’s plans were throughout the Tottenham play plan: one that for long periods, the Enrique conquest team had few answers.
After starting the game, it was PSG who sought to punch, with Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who turned perfectly to the Tottenham penalty area before shooting his effort.
But Spurs, who appeared more directly in his play than with the former postcoglou ange, seemed threatening to the counter.
The animated Mohammed Kudus fed Richarlison on the right. The Brazilian chose a strike for the first time from a distance, which was included by Lucas Chevalier after removing a slight nick of Pacho on his way to the goal.
Rodrigo Bentancur went from the resulting corner, but the first signs of Spurs were promising.
And that early promise ended up paying off when, six minutes before the half, the London northern club broke the dead point.
PSG did not deal with a free kick in the box, allowing Bentancur to go to the goal on the left.
The ball found its way to Palhinha, which Chevalier was expertly saved in the bar, but Van Ven was in hand to go home.
Kudus then struck the goal frame when Spurs approached to double his advantage in half.
But shortly of two minutes after the restart, Frank’s men expanded their leadership when the new club captain Romero headed home from another free game with which maybe Chevalier should have done better.
The Champions League winners were stunned. The spurs were in Dreamland; Less than 45 minutes from the second continental crown in a matter of months.
With no goal for more than an hour, PSG showed signs of life when they had a goal that was left out of play in the 64th minute.
The French side was now starting to sound. In response, Tottenham launched Archie Gray and Dominic Solanke in the hope of refreshing things to see the contest.
Enrique’s team fought firmly on the momentum of the last quarter of an hour, the pressure producing a breakthrough when the low driving of Lee reduced the deficit with only five minutes to play.
With the PSG that smelled of blood, the comeback was completed in the stoppage, Goncalo Ramos, another substitute, heading to the Dembele cross to send the party to a penalty shot.
At the battle of the specific points, it was PSG who came out on top and recovered again from Vitinha Mass to win the 4-3 after Ven Ven and Mathys Tel missed Tottenham.
For PSG, it marked a fifth trophy in 2025, while for Spurs fans, it was almost a welcome memory of the old adage on buses.
But for 80 impressive minutes, it may be, perhaps, a sign of things to come.
