🔗 Share this article PSG Edges Marseille via Spot-Kicks to Claim French Season-Opening Trophy in the Middle East. The Parisian club has now won the season-opening trophy on 14 different times. The Parisian giants required a stoppage-time leveler followed by a successful spot-kick decider to overcome their arch-rivals in the Gulf and capture a record-extending fourth consecutive French Super Cup title. The European champions appeared to be sailing towards a comfortable win in the match between the Ligue 1 winners and the French Cup winners after Ousmane Dembele found the net early on. However, Marseille struck twice late to take a shock lead. Initially, Mason Greenwood scored from the spot-kick, before the defender unfortunately turned the ball into his own net for an own goal. In a breathtaking turn of fortune, the Portuguese striker grabbed a crucial equaliser in the dying seconds to send the match into a penalty shootout. The Parisian shot-stopper Chevalier then stood as the hero, stopping crucial attempts from O'Riley and Hamed Traore. From the spot, Goncalo Ramos, the midfielder, Nuno Mendes, and Desire Doue all scored successfully for PSG to seal a 4-1 penalty victory. Now 14-time winners Paris Saint-Germain, who met last season's Ligue 1 runners-up Marseille after completing a domestic double, have now won this competition for the twelfth time in the last 13 years.
