Paris Saint‑Germain secured the Trophée des Champions (French Super Cup) on January 8, 2026, defeating Olympique de Marseille 4‑1 on penalties after a 2‑2 draw in regulation time at the Jaber Al‑Ahmad International Stadium in Kuwait City. The win marks PSG’s fourteenth Super Cup title and their fourth in a row, extending their record in the competition.
PSG took an early lead when Ousmane Dembélé scored in the 13th minute, lifting the ball over the goalkeeper to open the scoring. Marseille responded in the second half with a Mason Greenwood penalty in the 76th minute and then went ahead when PSG defender Willian Pacho inadvertently turned the ball into his own net in the 87th minute.
Just as it seemed Marseille would hold on, Gonçalo Ramos struck a dramatic equaliser in stoppage time (90+5’) to force the match into a penalty shootout, energising PSG and their supporters.
In the shootout, goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier emerged as the hero, saving two spot‑kicks from Marseille’s Matt O’Riley and Hamed Traore, while Ramos, Vitinha, Nuno Mendes and Désiré Doué converted for PSG to seal the victory. Doué’s penalty proved decisive in the 4‑1 shootout scoreline.
PSG coach Luis Enrique praised his team’s resilience, noting the character shown to recover and force penalties after falling behind late in the match. “We showed our ability to fight back, even in the final minute,” he said, underlining the club’s competitive mindset.
Marseille coach Roberto de Zerbi, while disappointed, acknowledged his side’s performance against one of France’s strongest teams, saying his squad should be proud of their effort despite the outcome. The victory gives PSG momentum early in the season as they pursue domestic and continental objectives.
