PSG triumphs on penalties: Supercup win against Tottenham!

The duel between the two teams, who had won different continental titles, ended 4-3 for the French after a thrilling penalty shootout. Before the dramatic decision, the score was 2-2 after 90 minutes after Tottenham took an early lead with goals from Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero.
Van de Ven put Spurs in front in the 39th minute and Cristian Romero made it 2-0 in the 48th minute after a mistake by PSG goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier.
