PSG beat Aston Villa to win second UEFA Super Cup in history

PSG beat Aston Villa to win their second UEFA Super Cup.

French club Paris Saint-Germain beat English club Aston Villa 2-1 in the UEFA Super Cup in Austria.

PSG striker Hvicha Kvaratsheliya opened the scoring in the 20th minute. Aston Villa striker Brian Majo equalized in the 45th minute. PSG striker Desiree Due put the Parisians ahead again in the 61st minute, making the final score 2-1.

Thus, PSG became the winner of the UEFA Super Cup for the second time in a row. The team first won this trophy in 2025. At that time, Luis Enrique's team drew 2-2 with English club Tottenham Hotspur in normal time and won 4-3 on penalties.

The match was officiated by a Somali referee team led by Omar Abdulkadir Artan. The 34-year-old referee was denied entry into the United States at Miami International Airport before the World Cup, which began in June. Although he was on the list of referees selected by FIFA for the World Cup, he was turned back at border control.

Last season, PSG won the Champions League. In the final, the Parisians defeated London's Arsenal. Although the match ended 1-1 after normal time, PSG won 4-3 on penalties.

Aston Villa won the Europa League. Birmingham defeated Freiburg 3-0 in the final.
