Paris Saint-Germain defeated Tottenham Hotspur in a dramatic UEFA Super Cup penalty shootout after coming back from a 2-0 deficit in the 85th minute. Coach Luis Enrique acknowledged that his team was not deserving of the victory based on their performance for 80 minutes. Tottenham's superior fitness and training put them in a strong position. PSG equalized late with goals from Lee Kang-in and Gonçalo Ramos, eventually winning the shootout after a shaky start. Lucas Chevalier debuted as PSG's new starting goalkeeper in this match.
For 80 minutes we didn't deserve that, I think Tottenham deserved to win the match because they were in form, they were training for six weeks and they played a great match.
We have been training only for six days but sometimes football is unfair. I have to say we were very lucky in the last 10 minutes that we could score two goals.
My players had faith until the last minute, like our supporters.
It was quite the debut for Lucas Chevalier, a goalkeeper who has just joined from Lille and taken over as first choice at PSG.
