PSG retain UEFA Super Cup with 2-1 win over Aston Villa

On August 12, Paris St Germain (PSG) secured a 2-1 victory over Aston Villa in the UEFA Super Cup, retaining the trophy. Goals from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Desire Doue proved decisive. Kvaratskhelia opened the scoring in the 20th minute, followed by an equaliser from Villa's Brian Madjo at halftime. Doue restored PSG's lead in the 61st minute, scoring his second goal of the match just before halftime.

Despite Villa's efforts, they were unable to equalize again. Manager Luis Enrique, who had fielded a strong team, secured his 13th trophy since joining PSG in 2023, while Villa manager Unai Emery suffered his fourth loss in four UEFA Super Cup appearances. This win joins AC Milan and Real Madrid as the only teams to have retained the UEFA Super Cup.
