Tottenham played PSG in the Super Cup of Europe after the penalty series

  • Tottenham played PSG in the final of the Super Cup of Europe 2025.
  • The match ended in a draw 2-2, PSG won the penalty shootout.
  • Thomas Frank debuted as the head coach of Tottenham in this match.

Tottenham wanted to start the era of the new coach Thomas Frank with a victory, but they played against PSG in the final of the Super Cup of Europe 2025. The match ended in a draw 2-2, and in the penalty series, PSG won 4-3.

Tottenham was leading 2-0 after goals from Mikkel van de Vena and Cristian Romero. However, PSG, who did not manage to score in the first half, equalized the score thanks to goals from Kang-in Lee and Gonzalo Ramos in added time.

A key moment was the penalty series, where Tottenham missed two shots. Although Vitiña from PSG did not convert his first shot, the team showed resilience and won the match.

Tottenham's coach, Frank, noted that the team demonstrated potential but needs to improve their game in the closing moments to avoid similar mishaps in the future.

In the match, PSG lacked sharpness, as the team only began preparation after the final of the club world championship in June. Nonetheless, their reaction to Tottenham's pressure in the second half showed why they remain favorites in European football.
