PSG Defeats Marseille on Penalties to Claim Trophee des Champions Super Cup in Kuwait.
The Parisian club has now won the prestigious trophy on 14 separate occasions.
The Parisian giants required a dramatic leveler followed by a successful penalty shootout to get past their arch-rivals in Kuwait and secure a fourth straight Trophee des Champions title.
The European champions appeared to be coasting towards a comfortable triumph in the match featuring the French league champions and the French Cup holders after the French winger found the scoring early on.
Yet, Marseille struck two times late to seize a shock advantage. First, the English forward scored from the penalty spot, before the defender unfortunately directed the ball into his own net for an own goal.
In a remarkable turn of fortune, Goncalo Ramos snatched a crucial leveler in the dying moments to send the match into a deciding shootout. PSG goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier then stood as the hero, stopping crucial attempts from Matt O'Riley and Traore.
From the spot, Goncalo Ramos, the midfielder, Nuno Mendes, and Desire Doue all converted successfully for PSG to seal a 4-1 penalty win.
The record champions Paris Saint-Germain, who met last season's Ligue 1 runners-up Marseille after completing a league and cup double, have now won this competition for the twelfth time in the past 13 seasons.
