🔗 Share this article PSG Overcomes Marseille on Penalties to Lift French Super Cup in the Middle East. PSG has now secured the season-opening cup on 14 different occasions. The Parisian giants required a stoppage-time equaliser followed by a perfect penalty shootout to overcome their arch-rivals in the Gulf and capture a record-extending fourth consecutive French Super Cup victory. The European champions appeared to be coasting towards a straightforward win in the match featuring the French league winners and the Coupe de France winners after the French winger opened the net early on. However, Marseille struck twice late to seize a surprise advantage. Initially, Mason Greenwood converted from the penalty spot, before Willian Pacho unfortunately directed the ball into his own net for an own-goal. In a breathtaking turn of events, Goncalo Ramos grabbed a crucial leveler in the dying seconds to force the contest into a penalty shootout. The Parisian shot-stopper Lucas Chevalier then stood as the key figure, stopping decisive attempts from O'Riley and Hamed Traore. From the spot, Ramos, the midfielder, the full-back, and the young talent all scored successfully for PSG to complete a convincing penalty victory. Now 14-time winners PSG, who faced last season's Ligue 1 runners-up Olympique de Marseille after achieving a league and cup double, have now won this competition for the 12th time in the last thirteen years.
