Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) successfully defended their UEFA Super Cup title with a 2-1 victory over Aston Villa in Salzburg. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Desire Doue scored for PSG, while Aston Villa's Brian Madjo netted a debut goal. The Super Cup, contested between the Champions League and Europa League winners, was officiated by Somalian referee Omar Artan.

PSG's victory marks their second consecutive win in the tournament, having previously triumphed against Tottenham Hotspur on penalties. The match saw PSG's Kvaratskhelia open the scoring with a powerful strike, only for Villa's Madjo to equalize just before halftime. Doue secured the win for PSG in the second half after a VAR review confirmed his goal.

Aston Villa, under the management of Unai Emery, showed resilience but ultimately fell short. The match featured strong lineups from both sides, with PSG fielding nine players from their Champions League-winning team. Villa gave debuts to midfielder Joao Gomes and striker Madjo, while PSG's Lucas Digne faced his former team from the bench.

PSG coach Luis Enrique expressed his ambition for the season, aiming for a third consecutive Champions League title. The victory provides PSG with a strong start to their new season, while Villa can take pride in their performance against top European competition.
