Desire Doue scored the winner as champions of Europe Paris Saint-Germain beat Aston Villa 2-1 to win the UEFA Super Cup.

The 21-year-old raced in behind the defence and restored the lead for the Ligue 1 side to ensure they retained the trophy but Villa went down swinging in what was a highly-contested fixture at the Red Bull Arena in Salzburg.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia had initially given PSG the lead after cutting inside from the left and wrong-footing Marco Bizot with his well-taken effort (20) but a goal on his professional debut for 17-year-old Brian Madjo sparked Villa into life.

The forward became the youngest player to score in the Super Cup after shrugging off the challenge from Willian Pacho to volley the equaliser home and arguably should have had more to his name, having seen three other chances sail just wide of the target.

Villa were without key players Ollie Watkins, Ezri Konsa and Emiliano Martinez due to their extended post-World Cup breaks but the gaps left by senior players provided the likes of Madjo and 19-year-old George Hemmings with a platform to shine.

The two teenagers looked at home among world-class opposition and the latter came close to responding to Doue's strike seconds after Villa conceded, only for Matvey Safonov to make a fine stop to deny him.

Luis Enrique's side would hold on to start the 2026/27 campaign with silverware but they were given an almighty scare by Unai Emery and his new-look squad, in a similar fashion to the 5-4 thriller that played out in the Champions League when the sides last met in 2025.

Aston Villa boss Unai Emery speaking to TNT Sports:

"With a loss, you can never feel happy but how we compete, how the players respond on the field for 90 minutes. And our chances to score, we must feel really very proud of what we have done today."

On the performances of Brian Madjo and George Hemmings: "Their experiences and having days like today are very important.

"They show how are they are learning after their hard work. This is the way. We decided before the game how we wanted to play this game; we have worked the players in these positions."
