Paris Saint-Germain beats Aston Villa to walk away with the Super Cup

⚽ European football’s new season is underway. PSG held onto the UEFA Super Cup last night for the second year in a row, beating Aston Villa 2-1 in Salzburg in a match that had more twists than your average pre-season fixture. PSG’s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia opened the scoring in the 20th minute before 17-year-old Brian Madjo — making his competitive debut for Villa days after a FIFA registration dispute was resolved in the club’s favor — evened the playing field.

Désiré Doué secured it for PSG in the 61st minute with a goal initially ruled out for offside before a VAR check. Les Parisiens became the first club to seize the cup back-to-back since Real Madrid in 2016 and 2017.

AND- The leagues kick off this weekend. La Liga’s 2026/27 season starts Saturday, with kick-off staggered to accommodate clubs whose players went deep into the World Cup. Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Atlético Madrid have all had their opening fixtures pushed back — they won’t play until the weekend of 22-23 August, with some fixtures rescheduled as midweek games. Saturday’s early action features Alaves vs Getafe at 8:30pm on beIN Sports 3, followed by Sevilla vs Rayo Vallecano at 10:30pm on beIN Sports 1.
