PSG - Tottenham: A crazy scenario and Paris launches its season with a European trophy, the match summary

PSG got their season off to a perfect start with a European trophy. Paris were pushed around early in the match, and PSG's new goalkeeper had to work hard from the 23rd minute onward. Chevalier flew in to deflect Richarlison's shot for a corner. He was called upon again for the second clear chance of the match and made another classy save, except that Van de Ven followed up and punished the Parisians before the break (39') in a first half that was a bit short on chances.
In the second half, Paris didn't fare any better, and even Lucas Chevalier made a mistake. Romero's header at the far post didn't exempt the former Lille player from blame (48'). PSG then wanted to sound the revolt. Barcola thought he could give his team hope, but his goal was disallowed for an offside position (66'). Tottenham moved deeper, and the Parisian bench made the difference. Lee revived his team with a perfectly placed shot in the 85th minute. There was then a little time to equalize, and PSG managed to complete their last-minute comeback thanks to another substitute. In the 95th minute, a fierce header from Ramos sent the two teams to penalties. Tottenham then took their first option after Vitinha's miss, but once again, PSG found great resources to turn the situation around thanks to Chevalier and Tel's clumsiness.
"I'm proud. We haven't had much preparation, but football isn't just about the physical, it's also about the mental. We welcome Lucas Chevalier, who is used to pressure. He's a great goalkeeper," smiled Marquinhos after PSG's victory.
