Mbappé excels as PSG wins the French Super Cup for the record 12th time – Congratulations, Mbappe!!!

After just three minutes, PSG had the lead thanks to a goal from Korean forward Lee Kang In. After Dembele successfully escaped and redirected the attack from the long pass to the right wing, the ball found its way back into the penalty area, where Lee Kang In was there in time to finish the shot and beat goaltender Restes.

In the eleventh minute, Donnum made a risky long-range attempt, but the ball narrowly missed PSG’s goalpost. In the thirty-first minute, Barcola and Lee Kang In put on a good combination move, but goaltender Restes blocked the opportunity with a fantastic stop.

Toulouse may have knotted the score in the 37th minute if they had been more fortunate. The striker Dallinga attempted a long-range shot, but it was blocked by a PSG defender. However, he persisted in making a sly run to steal the ball from Donnum and cross the finish line quickly. But, goalie Donnarumma managed to stop the ball with his hand; it struck the post and then left the field.

Toulouse paid the price in the 44th minute as they lost interest in attempting to find an equalizer and gave up once more. Kylian Mbappe dribbles. Goalie Restes faced a shot that eventually went in after the ball had passed between three opponent defenders.

With a two-goal lead, PSG managed the game well in the second half. Luis Enrique’s team played proactive defense, waiting for the right moment to strike back. PSG won the French Super Cup for a record 12 times at the beginning of 2024, although they won 2-0 in the end and no more goals were scored.
