Paris Saint-Germain secured their second UEFA Super Cup in as many years by defeating Aston Villa 2-1 in Salzburg on Wednesday. The French champions had previously won the tournament in 2023 by beating Tottenham Hotspur on penalties in Udine. Désiré Doué scored the decisive goal in the second half, becoming the youngest scorer in Super Cup history at just 17 years old.
Aston Villa, who had already clinched the Europa League title, put up a strong fight but ultimately fell short against the seasoned European champions. This victory puts PSG in an elite club of only two teams to have retained the Super Cup consecutively since 2016.
