After officiating the 2019 Super Cup between Chelsea and Liverpool Frappart told CNN:
"It was a pretty special feeling when you walked out in the stadium and the crowd were actually cheering for us, I've never experienced that and in such a big, big match.
"In the warm-up I looked around and I was like, the other teams aren't here so they have to be cheering for us."
"When you looked up at the crowd, I normally don't engage with the crowd, they were looking at us and a few were waving and giving us thumbs up and congratulations. I thought that was pretty special."

Donnarumma ‘disappointed and disheartened' at PSG Super Cup squad omission
Italy international Donnarumma was an eye-catching omission from PSG's Super Cup squad for Wednesday's fixture with Tottenham in his home country. Big-money summer arrival Lucas Chevalier has been included and is set to make his PSG debut at Stadio Friuli after Luis Enrique confirmed he wanted a goalkeeper profile that was 'different' to Donnarumma. — GIANLUIGI DONNARUMMA (@donnarumma) August 12, 2025 Italy captain Donnarumma has since taken to Instagram to criticise the decision and expressed his desire to say goodbye 'in the eyes one more time' to the PSG supporters at Parc des Princes. 'To the special Paris fans, from the first day I arrived, I gave everything – on and off the pitch – to earn my place and defend the goal of Paris St Germain,' Donnarumma said. 'Unfortunately, someone has decided that I can no longer be part of the group and contribute to the team's success, I am disappointed and disheartened. 'I hope to have the opportunity to look the fans at the Parc des Princes in the eyes one more time and say goodbye as it should be done. 'If that doesn't happen, I want you to know that your support and affection mean the world to me and I will never forget it. I will always carry with me the memory of all the emotions, the magical nights and of you, who made me feel at home. 'To my team-mates – my second family – thank you for every battle, every laugh, every moment we shared. You will always be my brothers. 'Playing for this club and living in this city has been an immense honour. Thank you, Paris.' Luis Enrique explained his decision in Udine, saying: 'These are always difficult decisions to make. 'I can definitely talk about Gigio, because he's one of the best players in his position, without a doubt. He's even better as a person. 'We're looking for a goalkeeping profile that is different to Donnarumma. It's always difficult to make the decision in these kinds of situations.' Luis Enrique also revealed Tottenham were once an option for him and admitted they have a physical advantage on Wednesday. The 55-year-old was linked with the vacancy at Spurs after Antonio Conte left in 2023, but Ange Postecoglou was eventually hired and Luis Enrique subsequently took over PSG in a sliding doors moment for both men. Postecoglou was able to mastermind Europa League success in May and end Tottenham's 17-year trophy drought, whilst Luis Enrique guided PSG to the holy grail of a maiden Champions League title. The pair will not face each other in Italy after Spurs ruthlessly discarded with Postecoglou following a poor domestic campaign and the appointment of Thomas Frank – alongside the fact they have been in pre-season training since early July, while PSG only returned last Wednesday after their Club World Cup exploits – gives the English outfit a slight edge, according to Luis Enrique. 'Well, I have to say that it is difficult because they changed recently the manager, new manager, some new players, they play a few friendly matches before tomorrow's match and I don't know what kind of game they are going to plan,' Luis Enrique acknowledged. The squad to face Tottenham! 📋🔴🔵#SuperCup — Paris Saint-Germain (@PSG_English) August 12, 2025 'It is going to be difficult because they have been training for the last month and we are in our first week, but it is not an excuse. 'We are going to try to compete at our best.' On Spurs' links, Luis Enrique added: 'Well, there were some options for me in the last six months before I came to Paris and Tottenham was one of them.'

What are the latest Golden Boot 2025/26 odds?
Mo Salah completed a record-breaking year last season which saw him secure the Golden Boot for fourth time but is not the bookies favourite to overtake Thierry Henry's record As the Premier League commences for another season, some of the best attackers in the world will be battling it out for the Golden Boot trophy. Last year's exploits saw Liverpool's Mo Salah steam ahead with 29 goals with potential new teammate Alexander Isak behind on 23 goals last season but surprisingly, neither are marked as the early favourite with the bookies. That goes to Erling Haaland who is currently 6/5 with William Hill going into the start of the season as the bookies favourite with Salah 4/1 to retain it while Isak is 6/1 and new arrival Viktor Gyokeres is 13/2. Mohamed Salah begins 2025/26 with the weight of fresh expectation. After a record-chasing year in which he matched the Premier League benchmark for single-season goal contributions, his 29 goals delivered the Golden Boot and 18 assists underlined his status among the world's elite. Those numbers put his name in the Ballon d'Or conversation, but last year's harvest guarantees nothing once the first whistle blows. Salah's mix of ruthless finishing and selfless supply gave Liverpool a cutting edge in tight matches. He thrived in transition, punished high lines and remained ice-cool from the spot. Crucially, his availability and consistency set the tone for a title-winning campaign. Maintaining that reliability while Liverpool defend the crown is the challenge now, with opponents better briefed and recruitment across the league aimed squarely at narrowing the gap. But there are threats - both old and new - in the horizon if Salah is to accomplish an unprecedent fifth Golden Boot win. Typically, Erling Haaland, the ever-present yardstick at Manchester City, remains the most direct threat. His shot volume and penalty-box presence make 30 league goals a realistic target in any season. Meanwhile, Alexander Isak's rise at Newcastle United has been steady and sophisticated but his ongoing rift at the club to leave for Liverpool causes early doubt as to how he will compete for the honour again this season. Plus Viktor Gyökeres is set to spearhead Arsenal's attacking lineup as Mikel Arteta hopes he finally has the missing piece in the puzzle after back-to-back-to-back seasons finishing runners-up. His blend of power, pressing and smart near-post runs could give the Gunners the penalty-area focal point they have sought. Hugo Ekitike has already made an impact at Liverpool scoring in the Community Shield at the weekend adding pace and off-ball aggression to the Reds' forward rotation. His impressive individual performance - despite the loss to Crystal Palace - offers some immediate insight for Arne Slot if the Isak transfer does not go through this summer. Some outside options could well be in the discussion too as Manchester United's new-look attack looks fit and raring to go as Ruben Amorim puts his stamp on the club with Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbuemo and Benjamin Sesko all part of a new-look front three. The players are exactly the type that Amorim has been lacking since arriving at Old Trafford which could see a completely different United to the one we have seen in recent years. Golden Boot 2025/26 Odds Erling Haaland - 6/5 Mo Salah - 4/1 Alexander Isak - 6/1 Viktor Gyokeres - 13/2 Joao Pedro - 16/1 Hugo Ekitike - 16/1 Benjamion Sesko - 18/1 Cole Palmer - 20/1 BAR - 25/1 18+ | Gamble responsibly | | Odds subject to change | Odds supplied by William Hill Premier League Betting Offers If you are on the lookout for the latest free bet offers, then look no further.
