🚨 BREAKING: PSG deny defiant Aston Villa in narrow UEFA Super Cup win
🚨 BREAKING: PSG deny defiant Aston Villa in narrow UEFA Super Cup win PSG's hegemonic dominance continues tonight after Luis Enrique's troops got the better of Unai Emery's Aston Villa in a hotly contested 2-1 win at Salzburg's Red Bull Arena. Scorers: Kvaratskhelia (20'), Doué (61'); Madjo (45') Dominant across the opening 20 minutes of play, a trademark blockbuster opener from star Georgian winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia broke the deadlock in Salzburg to set the French giants away on the night. Villa nearly battled back seven minutes later through highly-touted 17-year-old forward Brian Madjo, but the England youth striker could only see his effort glide wide. Madjo would make amends just before halftime, with the debutant finding the back of the net with a brilliant left-footed volley at the back post to slot beyond Matvey Safonov, becoming the youngest-ever goalscorer in Super Cup history. New PSG signing Maghnes Akliouche, who was given the nod in the starting XI, was hooked at the break and replaced by Ousmane Dembélé as Enrique looked to freshen up the attack. And it would pay dividends when he combined with Les Bleus colleague Désiré Doué, who restored the one-goal lead for Les Parisiens with an ice-cold finish, adding to his first-half assist on Kvaratskhelia's opener. Despite Emery's Villa fighting to the last, Doué's strike would go down as the match-winner as PSG successfully retained their Super Cup crown (the 13th major honour since Enrique's arrival) ahead of another season filled with high expectations in the French capital.
